Introduction
============
If you are installing this package as part of the GNUstep core
libraries, read the file GNUstep-HOWTO for more complete instructions on
how to install the entire GNUstep package (including this library).
GNUstep-HOWTO comes with the core distribution and also is located at
the same ftp sites as this library.
If you are instsalling the GNUstep libraries individually, make sure
you have installed the GNUstep Makefile package (gstep-make) already.
Most of the installation instructions for gstep-make also apply to this
library. When you configure this library, make sure you use the same
configuration options as with gstep-make. Some additional options to
configure are described below.
Make sure you have installed the GNUstep Makefile package (gnustep-make)
before trying to install this package (gnustep-base). Configuring and
installing the gnustep-core suite of packages as a whole is no longer
supported - you need to configure and install each package in turn.
Configuration
=============
Configuration is performed by running the `configure' program at a
shell prompt. You may want to use some of the optional arguments to the
`configure' program. Type `configure --help' for a list of these. It is
not likely that you will need to use the `--prefix' option, since
gstep-base will automatically install in the directory specified by the
`GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT' environment variable (specified when you
installed gstep-make).
Before doing anything, you need to make sure you have run the GNUstep
shell initialization script - which should have been installed when you
installed gnustep-make. You need to type something like
Many configuration options for the base library need to be specified
when configuring the gstep-make package. In most cases, it is a good
idea to specify the same configuration options when configuring both
packages, just to make sure.
. /usr/GNUstep/System/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
where you need to use the full path of your GNUstep initialization script.
If you have based your GNUstep installation somewhere else than the default
(the default is /usr/GNUstep) - by using a special --prefix option when
configuring gnustep-make, then you need to replace `/usr/GNUstep/' with the
base of your gnustep installation. For example, if you configured
gnustep-make using `./configure --prefix=/opt/GNUstep', then the GNUstep
shell initialization script is in /opt/GNUstep/System/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh.
After you have run the GNUstep initialization script, you must configure
this package. Configuration is performed by running the `configure' program
at a shell prompt. You may want to use some of the optional arguments to the
`configure' program. Type `./configure --help' for a list of these. NB: you
do *not* need to use the `--prefix' option, since gnustep-base will
automatically install in the directory specified by the
`GNUSTEP_SYSTEM_ROOT' environment variable (specified when you installed
gnustep-make), and this should not be changed.
Also make sure you've read the machine-specific instructions for your
particular operating system and CPU. These instructions come with the

Make sure you specify this option when configuring gstep-make also.
Compilation
===========
To compile this library, type make. After this is complete, type make
install (make sure you are the root user). Some additional options you
can use with make are `debug=yes' to make a debugging version of the
library and `shared=no' to make a static version of the library. See
the gstep-make package for more information on these options.
