The screenshot looks outright wrong to me. The fhs and debian layouts would 
install all applications into a dedicated Applications directory that would be 
located, along with the Bundles, Frameworks, etc. directories, in 
/usr/lib/GNUstep (or /usr/local/lib/GNUstep). And of course all of the bundles 
should appear in the Bundles directory and not at the top level. So it looks 
like raspbian/debian is using some custom layout and eventually something is 
also wrong with their installation process. You might try to check where 
applications are supposed to be installed by running
  gnustep-config --variable=GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_APPS
and
  gnustep-config --variable=GNUSTEP_LOCAL_APPS
in a terminal.
