Bug 941167 – gnustep-base/gnustep-base-1.30.0[libobjc2]: ld.lld: error: unable to find library -l:libobjc.so.4 (configure: error: The Objective-C compiler does not work or is not installed properly.)

build.log

Looks like the package wants to link against libobjc.so.4, but gnustep-base/libobjc2-2.2.1 only installs libobjc.so and libobjc.so.4.6. Creating the missing symlink makes the package compile correctly.

Of course, the libobjc2 use flag is on gnustep-make, not gnustep-base.

[Comment 3 Marco Rebhan 2024-12-17 22:10:24 UTC]

Seems to be working now, not sure if I've changed anything.
