Debian
Note: GNUstep packages in Debian's Unstable (Sid) repositories are currently broken. This is due to upgrades in to GNUstep's libraries/frameworks. To successfully install GNUstep under Debian Sid, do not apt-get gnustep as this will not work. Packages will need to be installed seperately.
Since Debian "Sarge" (3.1) you can just say
apt-get install x-window-system-core wmaker gnustep gnustep-devel gnustep-games
to get GNUstep, X11 and Window Maker installed.
But what happen if you are on Debian oldstable (3.0) release ?
Here is an answer from gnustep irc channel:
<fsmunoz> change every occurence of "stable" for "testing" <fsmunoz> remove the security.debian.org line <fsmunoz> do apt-get update <fsmunoz> apt-get dist-upgrade <fsmunoz> repeat this last one until nothing gets installed or removed. <fsmunoz> the, replace "testing" with "unstable" <fsmunoz> then, apt-get update <fsmunoz> apt-get dist-upgrade <fsmunoz> repeat, repeat. <fsmunoz> done
The above was a general guide to upgrade from Debian stable to unstable, not exactly the best way to install GNUstep packages. If one doesn't want to upgrade it is possible to simply add the unstable apt lines to the sources.list and specify the distribution when installing the packages, e.g.
# apt-get install -t unstable gnumail.app
This will probably upgrade some other packages to satisfy dependencies, but will have a much small impact on the system since only the packages on which GNUstep depends will be upgraded.
PowerPC
In addition to methods describe about, an additional repository is available for Debian PPC by tarzeau; he packages a huge ammount of GNUstep packages for PowerPC. Just add this to your sources.list:
deb http://www.linuks.mine.nu/debian/ ./ deb-src http://www.linuks.mine.nu/debian/ ./
This repository contains packages made in unstable, so it's possible that the dependencies only are satisfied in unstable systems.

Advance Server 3.0
- GNUstep-core-1.0, please see http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/CPAM_with_TWW#GNUstep_and_TWW_HPMS. look for the gnustep-core-1.0.sb and gnustep-core-1.0.pb file for building and packaging information.
Fedora Core

Slackware
Intel
Version 10.2
Libraries and accompanying applications will build with no modifications. Slackware 10.2 ships with GCC 3.3.6, so mixed Objective-C and C++ code is not supported, meaning additional frameworks/libraries may not be supported.
