Did you install gnustep / gnustep-make before running the make command? If yes, then there is a GNUstep.sh script that has to be run before using gnustep-make. I am not sure where it resides on Linux though. The GNUstep installation should take care of placing all the necessary files where they need to be so that you will not have to do this manually under normal circumstances,
Instructions for building from source in Linux are here: http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/Running_Oolite-Linux#Building_Oolite-Linux_from_source
Hope this helps, or we may have to wait for a Linux port dev to chime in.
Eventually figured out gnustep, but that exposed a number of unknown target/type errors.
Going to close this post anyways as this is an environment error.
Heh, was a bit slow in replying. But in case anybody else is reading this after having the same issue:
http://www.gnustep.org/resources/documentation/User/GNUstep/gnustep-howto_4.html
Except in current Debian (Ubuntu?) the location is:
/usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
Also, the proper package to install is "gnustep-devel" on these systems.
