The script /usr/GNUstep/Local/Tools/Gentoo/config-camaelon.sh configure GNUstep to use camaelon as default theme engine, but no theme is defined, so running a GNUstep application (like GNUmail) will print a lot of: 2006-11-05 19:18:49.780 GNUMail[19491] Theme named (nil) is set in defaults 2006-11-05 19:18:49.780 GNUMail[19491] No theme (nil) found in search paths: ("/home/moonz/GNUstep/Library", "/usr/GNUstep/Local/Library", "/usr/GNUstep/System/Library") and finally will die (in the case of GNUmail, with this message): 2006-11-05 19:18:49.924 GNUMail[19491] X-Windows error - BadWindow (invalid Window parameter) on display: :0.0 type: 0 serial number: 487 request code: 20 2006-11-05 19:18:49.924 GNUMail[19491] === Camaelon Error === 2006-11-05 19:18:49.925 GNUMail[19491] from CLBoxCompositor, left missing The solution is very simple: defaults write Camaelon Theme Nesedah Please add this to the configuration script, it can save a lot of hours for beginners in GNUstep like me ;)

I had had a lot of problems, hardly found few solutions and reported them, that's all... I mean, I don't say no for cooperating (I'd be happy), but I don't see how I could help ;)...
(it took some time, but finally) fixed this in CVS. Thanks!
