I have recently(read today) installed GNUStep needed by a game oolite-linux.

I have found the following imho very serious BUG in these spells.

Everything is installed under /usr/GNUStep which ISN'T FHS compliant.

I would propose to do one of the following things to improve the FHS
compliance.

a) Install everything under /usr/share/GNUStep - this is how debian does it
b) Install everything under /usr/lib/GNUStep - this would be same as
mozilla&co
c) Install everything under /opt/GNUStep - proposed solution on debian-policy

If anyone has other suggestions please come forth or correct me where I might
be wrong. When this is discused a bug should be opened for the gnustep
sections
in buzilla with the required solution.
