Ok I finally managed to build etoile and GNUstep so that everything works! I did make an archive and put it up on rapidshare with the source files from GNUstep/Etoile I used to build. I did it on a clean jaunty install (I didn't even apply updates) and copied together instructions that are included in the build-2 directory of the steps i did. the instructions, esp. those for installing build dependencies are for jaunty only and i'm afraid they wont work on another version. Etoile didn't find the libs as they are usually stored in /lib on a debian system, so i just copied them over to /lib. Also note, that I made the experience that if you modify the installpath of GNUstep, that the setup.sh from Etoile won't find it and it will lead to problems. I'm sorry, I dont know how to make packages and a ppa, so somebody else has to do that if interested.

I had some problems using tar through gui, as it followed one symbolic link and made a file the size of 1GB. I used tar on command line and hope that everything went well. If it didn't just drop me a post or email and I will try to correct it.

Greetings!
