Thanks both!
I suppose the issue is that when I installed libobjc2, sudo didn't didn'=
t copy the enviroment, with the enecessary variables set by GNUstep.sh. =
I learnd I have to use sudo -i, source the Makefile script for root, and=
 than run the make install.

Anyway a question raises: I read around that the clang/libobjc2 is the m=
ost suggested choice, isn't it?
Waiting to go deeper in that, yesterday I installed gnustep from OS repo=
sitory, and I am currently writing this e-mail from GNUmail ;-).
