Following are procedures for installing GNUstep on different Operating Systems.


BSD-based systems

To keep this list as brief as possible, information about these systems can be found here.



HP/UX


Linux-based systems

To keep this list as brief as possible, information about these systems can be found here.


Solaris

Intel

Move over to http://www.blastwave.org/ or http://www.sunfreeware.com/ to download and install all required dependencies. (Personally, I recommend the packages from BlastWave which usually are quite up-to-date. Interestingly, they already offer GNUstep-make as a package.)

If you follow the installation instructions for GNUstep, you should not run into any problems.

However, if you want to select Window Maker from the X login, you need to do some additional editing. Check out http://www.gunfleet.com/solaris/winman.htm for that. The information about Window Maker found there basically also applies if you plan on using Azalea from Étoilé.

Sparc


Windows

There are many Unix Environment solutions for windows. Currently GNUstep is using MingW as its unix environment foundation for Windows.

MingW

See Installation on Windows for details on MingW setup. Also look at precompiled binary installer, available from [ ftp://ftp.gnustep.org/pub/gnustep/binaries/windows/ GNUstep's ftp site].
