It has a few dependencies, yes.  Let us know how it goes.

IIRC GNUstep packages don=E2=80=99t use the GNU build system (./configure &&
make), but rather gnustep-make, right?

If that is the case, a good way to help with GNUstep packaging would be
to implement a =E2=80=98gnustep-build-system=E2=80=99 embodying GNUstep=E2=
=80=99s build system
idioms.  That is a bit more involved, but I (or others here) can help.

Thanks,
Ludo=E2=80=99.
