This page is a step-by-step "How-to compile the latest svn version of GNUstep". It's mainly a short summary of different documents available.
NOTE: Instruction on installing GNUstep on Windows are available at Installation on Windows.
Prerequisits
Make sure to have the libraries mentioned as Dependencies installed – from their specific web sites or using your packaging system. (Note that some distris/flavours put header files into separate *-dev or *-devel packages. In this case these must be installed, too!) You may also want to have a look at the article Platform compatibility for notes on your platform.
Download
svn co http://svn.gna.org/svn/gnustep/modules/core
See also using subversion.
Makefile Package
cd core/make ./configure make make install
For configurations options see ./configure --help. For example ./configure --with-layout=fhs enables a more FHS-conformable filesystem layout.
Extra configuration needed every time you use "GNUstep" from a command-line:
. /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
For Bourne compatible shells, or
. /usr/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.csh
For csh or tcsh.
Base/Foundation Library
cd core/base ./configure make make install
GUI/AppKit Library
cd core/gui ./configure make make install
Backend Library
The most stable GNUstep backend currently is the one dependent on libart, but is no longer actively developed. The libcairo has become the official backend but is still unstable.
cd core/back ./configure --enable-graphics=cairo #for standard backend leave this line out make make install
