The paths are different, but why is the Headers one wrong ?

I think Headers like to put gnu-gnu-gnu first so that you can have the Foundation headers for two different Foundation libraries, with no dependency on machine type.  Ie, you want to share the Foundation headers for your gnu-gnu-gnu across multiple machine types.  Of course you'd need multiple lib install though, only the headers are shared.

I think Libraries like to put ix86/linux-gnu first so that you can have machine-dependent C libs that do not depend on the Foundation library, ie you can share those C libs across different Foundations.  I think the headers themselves would go in different dirs though ... so you'd need multiple header install.

In conclusion, it seems in all cases you need to install your libs multiple times, once for each host/cpu/library-combo you want to support.

In that light, I'd agree with using the same layout for headers and libs to make it "more pleasant".  There is nothing wrong in using a different layout though.

In fact, changing it might require confusing changes spread over different foundation libs so I would just leave it as it is. :-)

Thanks

This is tested with gnustep-make-1.9.2
Libraries has the right path, Headers has it wrong:

/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Headers/gnu-gnu-gnu
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Headers/gnu-gnu-gnu/ix86
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Headers/gnu-gnu-gnu/ix86/linux-gnu
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Images
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/KeyBindings
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Libraries
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Libraries/ix86
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Libraries/ix86/linux-gnu
/usr/data/Test/System/Library/Libraries/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu
