Thanks for the suggestion - I didn't have my .xinitrc configured (but
this hasn't stopped GNUstep in my previous setup - I just let the first
app start it up). So I used the file from the buildguide. I had to put
a link from $GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Tools/gpbs to
$GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT/Tools/ ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu/gpbs for gpbs to
be found. But anyway, starting gpbs results in "Segmentation fault" as
well.
Another weird thing is that all the "defaults write" commands produce
"defaults write: domain is not a dictionary!"
Thanks - still not working,
Jim

Hi there
My guess is that you did not configure your .xinitrc file to start the
pasteboard server on X startup. When installing the debian packages,
it still helps to follow the build guide located at
http://documents.made-it.com/GNUstep/Build. You should look at
section 6, which covers post install configuration.
The debian installers should handle section 6.1 (starting gdomap and
gdnc), but you should configure the .xinitrc as in section 6.3 (linked
to here: http://documents.made-it.com/GNUstep/Build/xinitrc). Thsi
.xinitrc will also handle setting your defaults (described in section
6.2).
I recall seeing segfault before I did the above, so hopefully this
will solve your problem.

Hi,
Is anyone using the compiled GNUstep packages available for Debian?
I decided to try Debian a few days ago after seeing that I could just
use apt-get to install GNUstep. Everything else is working fine, but
trying to launch any GNUstep app just produces "Segmentation fault."
I at first tried Debian "stable", and nothing worked. So I upgraded
my whole system to "unstable" to get the newer packages (make/base
1.5.0, gui/back 0.8.1). Still a no-go. I've tried the Debian
packages for some apps as well as compiled some myself - same result.
I don't want to build my own GNUstep libraries - since I switched to
Debian so I could have GNUstep integrated into the rest of my package
management (and building GNUstep takes a while on my old laptop).
Anyone got it working?
Thanks!
Jim
P.S. Maybe this is more of a Debian question, but I thought I'd find
some others with this setup here.
