Subject: Re: gnustep debian app
developer env setup (help needed)
Hello Elim,
Etch is old. My suggestion is to move to Lenny. I'm using Lenny to package up some software which relies upon GNUstep, and it seems pretty stable.
However, I don't believe that gsweb or sope have been packaged for Debian, so you would need to build them from source.
Debian seems the best in my opinion. Ubuntu is good too as its debian-based, and may actually be a better deployment platform with their long-term support releases.
cheers
Scott
