That sounds quite painful. There's probably an easier way.
First, depending on what you want to do, you may not need to build all
of GNOME. What is your goal here? Do you only want to run GNOME, or
to work on it as a developer? Is there some particular program you
want to run or develop?
Yes sure I wish to run latest gnome3 to experience its design
,since it is a primary requirement to contribute to the project(as a
developer). Yes I have two projects in my mind gedit plugins to use for
development and anjuta integration with jhbuild . But it will take long
time to start them if setting up development environment takes me such a
huge time(It reminds me a still i am a newbie to become developer)
Second, I don't know how easily you could switch distributions, but
Debian is pretty far behind GNOME these days - Debian
stable/testing/unstable all still have GNOME 3.4 which is over a year
old. Debian experimental has GNOME 3.8, but might be more unstable
than unstable, of course. Both Fedora 19 Beta and Arch currently have
GNOME 3.8. The daily builds of Ubuntu 13.10 also have most of GNOME
3.8, though some packages are still at 3.6. If you want to switch to
one of these distros, you may have an easier time.

Thank you. I going to replace Debian(my development box) with arch
Linux. (To reduce a little struggle going to install antergos, it comes
with gnome 3.8.1).
