Re: Newbie needs some help...

[Josh Freeman]

   That tutorial links to GNUstep & libobjc2 sources that are several  
years out of date.

   There's an Ubuntu script on the GNUstep wiki for building the  
latest GS & libobjc2 versions - it might also work on Debian:
http://wiki.gnustep.org/index.php/GNUstep_under_Ubuntu_Linux

   Note that the script installs the clang package from your distro's  
repository (clang 3.5 on Debian Jessie); Since you mentioned you  
already had clang 3.9, I'd recommend modifying the script before you  
run it to remove clang from the list of packages to install, as  
installing over a newer clang version might cause issues:

   Modify "16.04 & 16.10" script, line 26 - remove "clang":
sudo apt -y install clang git ninja cmake libffi-dev libxml2-dev \
->
sudo apt -y install git ninja cmake libffi-dev libxml2-dev \


Cheers,

Josh
