Yesterday, I tried your packages on the latest OpenBSD/amd64 snapshot
and ran into some problems compiling SystemPreferences.app. The build
failed to find -lPreferencesPane (or something like that) even though
I did a make install to /usr/local/lib and there was a
libPreferencesPane.so.1.

The other thing is when I installed the Objective-C compiler from the
gobjc package it installed a different version of libobjc in
/usr/local/lib while the libraries from your packages were linking to
a different version of libobjc in /usr/lib. This was causing some
problems too although I don't remember the exact messages.

Is it possible to set a better defaults? The fonts for example were
too small (9pt?) and almost unreadable.

I think OpenBSD presents a good opportunity for GNUstep as a desktop.
Let me know if you want to test anything.

Cheers,
