FYI, you can change the path by setting GNUSTEP_USER_DIR_LIBRARY in ~/.GNUstep.conf. A setting like GNUSTEP_USER_DIR_LIBRARY=/var/empty/.GNUstep/Library will make the directory go away, without any complaints from unar. I'm attaching my .GNUstep.conf to show the possible directories and their default layout (replacing ~/GNUstep with /var/empty/.GNUstep). -- Michael
