FWIW there is a dedicated section on ArchWiki where there are more troubles than solutions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/JHBuild
I gave up on Linux and trying now on OSX where so far everything seems to work much better. However, `nspr` seems to be impossible to reach, and it's blocking my build for gjs and the rest. I guess I'm not being lucky at all, thanks for the support anyway.
