You have to run poudriere as root, but then it will source the relevant gnustep 
files in the jail that it uses for building if the port is marked as USES = 
gnustep.  You should then end up with a package repo somewhere inside 
/usr/local/poudriere.  The best thing to do is create a local config file in 
/usr/local/etc/pkg/repos/ pointing to that and install the package from there 
for testing.  You don’t have to do anything inside the poudriere-created jail 
other than check that things build, you can test on any system you like 
(including the host).
