Big win!
I’m a Debian user myself, but prepackaging in this way for users who just want
to use software without thinking of dependencies is good.
Any details on how it is preconfigured? Default userdefaults read from and
written to ~/GNUstep? XDG dirs? Prebuilt with GTK theme, or custom theme, or
something else and defaulting to it?
How did you produce the binary? Can we / should we integrate the process into
GNUstep Make?
