Instructions unclear: compile stuck in repo

Open sour-dani opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

Could you please add more specific instructions in regards to the installation process?

To use this library you need to build it and install it

I understand that I need to run make to compile the program as I've been reading into GNUStep compilation, but to beginners this might not be obvious.

I also have no idea how to "install" it.

  • Is there a directory I have to move a binary to?
  • Is there a simple command I have to run?
  • Should buildtool be relocated to the /usr/bin directory?

Edit: I think the install step is make install

When I compile and install with make install I get the following error

buildtool: error while loading shared libraries: libXCode.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Edit: I figured out how to properly set GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES however the GNUstep.sh script did nothing so I set it manually. I feel like this should also be mentioned as a requirement in the setup for this program.

I still get this error even after installing it correctly
