If your program uses gtk2 then you want meta-gtk-osx, not meta-gtk-osx-gtk3. You have to build freetype before pango if you want pangoft2. The easy way to make that happen is to tell unbuild everything you need all at once: jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap meta-gtk-osx meta-gtk-osx-freetype So that it can see everything you want and put it in the right order. To recover without starting over you can run jhbuild buildone -f pango and since you probably need cairoft2 as well jhbuild buildone -f cairo Configure will notice that freetype2 is now available and build the extra libraries.
