Hi Nikolaus,GSDE install scripts go far beyond just installing GNUstep libraries and build environment. Its purpose is to provide complete desktop environment so those scripts pull in a lot of dependencies, etc.
In addition, these scripts are very "opinionated" as to how everything should be setup and come together.
For example: - hard requirement for X11 - it comes with its fork of WindowMaker as WM - /Application, /Libraries type of directory layout - patches for GNUstep librariesConsidering all of this, dedicated build scripts for GNUstep is still very much needed, especially if you want to do cross-platform development.

Nice. Will try asap on different architectures (arm64, armel, armhf, i386, mipsel) and different Debian flavours.How is it related to https://onflapp.github.io/gs-desktop/index.html resp. https://github.com/onflapp/gs-desktop which is also a set of scripts to install GNUstep on Debian systems? Does it also provide some "Desktop" experience?BR, NikolausAm 24.02.2024 um 23:36 schrieb Ethan Charoenpitaks <echaroenpitaks@gmail.com>:Hi everyone,I've written an installation script for GNUstep, which has been tested so far on recent Debian and Ubuntu derivatives. It should be easily portable to any distribution, so long as you can determine the correct commands to install all the dependencies and clang-14. It will just install from source, installing all the files into /usr/GNUstep/System and /usr/GNUstep/Local. It's based on @plaurent's gnustep-build scripts <https://github.com/plaurent/gnustep-build>, but has been heavily modified to only have one script that applies to all distributions. I would appreciate it if anyone would be willing to try it out, or to port it to other distributions. It is probably also portable to other Unixes, but might not be applicable to Windows, iOS, or Android.To install GNUstep from source, please cd to the directory in which you want to store GNUstep's source code, and run the following script:wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ethanc8/gnustep-build/master/generic/build.sh | bash If you want to customize the installation paramaters (for example, to install an older version of the libraries, to install from git master, or to disable the applications), please do the following:git clone https://github.com/ethanc8/gnustep-build nano generic/build.sh # Or your favorite text editor ./generic/build.sh Thanks!Ethan
