You need to "source" it, that is

. /usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh

(mind the space between the '.' and the path! :-) )

Thanks.

Also, another check is that typing "echo $GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES" at the
command line should print out the location of the gnustep makefiles.  If
that does work, you have sourced GNUstep.sh correctly and compiling should
work. :-)

Thanks for your feedback
