I know that this issue is very unpopular in the GNUstep list, but I 
would also *very* much like to see the ability in gstep-make to 
configure for FHS places instead of "OpenStep" ones.
Eg:
  /System/Libraries => /usr/lib
  /Local/Libraries  => /usr/local/lib
  /System/Library/  => /usr/share/
etc, whatever is appropriate.

IMHO now that the library combos are basically removed by making 
flattened standard, this is a viable request and except for 
applications which do not really fit into xxx/bin, GNUstep tools, 
libraries and resources are just regular Unix apps.

And indeed this is a *very* common request in the OGo project, which 
also uses the GNUstep environment and is therefore very "unnatural" to 
Unix admins who complain for good reason.
