Following are procedures for installing GNUstep on different OS.

HPUX 11.11

We should stay away from HPUX-10.20, it is not supported by HP anymore.

Debian

• Since Debian "Sarge" 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 have stable (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
