many thanks it worked.
But 2 modules later a new problem appeared.
My .jhbuildrc looks like:
moduleset = 'gnome-2.16'
modules = [ 'meta-gnome-desktop' ]
checkoutroot = os.path.expanduser('/data/gnome2')
prefix = '/data/opt/gnome2'
os.environ['INSTALL'] = os.path.expanduser('~/bin/install-check')
and the module PolicyKit gives a compile error pam_modules.h not found.
I installed libpam_dev and i get a little further.
Now i'm geting the error : undefined reference to 'pam_strerror' in
polkit-session.c
it is defined in _pam_types.h as an external. SO it looks like i am
missing a library but which one._pam_types is in the directory
/usr/inlcude/security.
do i someting wrong ?
