Under Ubuntu/Kubuntu, it is quite simple to install GNUstep using the provided packages, but it is another thing to get it to work. The applications will run, but when you try to compile anything it won't find the required make files.
Before you can compile anything, you have to source /usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh or /usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.csh. I think the easiest way to make sure that this always happens is to put a file in /etc/profile.d, call it GNUstep_profile.sh and add the following line to it (requires sudo privilege of course):
. /usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh
Note that the location of the GNUstep.sh may be different if you install GNUstep from source.
