If you are just starting off, install whatever packages come inside Ubuntu,
with the understanding they are probably out of date and a lot of new
development happened in the meantime.

Installing gnustep-make, -base, -gui and -back from the packages, as well
as GORM and ProjectCenter, means you can start playing with writing
software and worry about working with latest and greatest later.

This doesn't mean you didn't run into an actual bug; it does mean that if
you are just starting off, it may not make personal sense for you to fiddle
with compiling from scratch.

If you would still like to compile from scratch, we can chat over IM
(preferably XMPP) to guide you and figure out where the instructions you
have went wrong. Or I can try setting up a copy of Ubuntu 16.04 and try out
my deployment script in it before pointing you to it.
