I sort of fixed it in my build because it breaks GNOME Builder. I need to find out who that is, get them to fix it. ```Making install in vala-packmake[2]: Entering directory '/home/webreflection/Devel/gnome/checkout/gnome-builder/plugins/vala-pack' VALAC libvala_pack_plugin_la_vala.stamperror: Package `libvala-0.30' not found in specified Vala API directories or GObject-Introspection GIR directoriesCompilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)Makefile:850: recipe for target 'libvala_pack_plugin_la_vala.stamp' failedmake[2]: *** [libvala_pack_plugin_la_vala.stamp] Error 1make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/webreflection/Devel/gnome/checkout/gnome-builder/plugins/vala-pack'Makefile:537: recipe for target 'install-recursive' failedmake[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/webreflection/Devel/gnome/checkout/gnome-builder/plugins'Makefile:653: recipe for target 'install-recursive' failedmake: *** [install-recursive] Error 1*** Error during phase install of gnome-builder: ########## Error running make DESTDIR=/home/webreflection/Devel/gnome/runtime/usr/_jhbuild/root-gnome-builder install *** [101/101]``` Following step by step **that** page I've managed to build most of the things and finally, eventually, happily, starting building via ~/Devel/gnome/runtime/usr/bin/jhbuild run make prefix=~/Devel/gnome/runtime/usr/ That's great! Glad that worked for you! from within the gjs-documentation Now I'm not entirely sure who's fault is that, but I'm afraid I wouldn't call `jhbuild` a smooth experience, it took less time to fully configure MacPorts on OSX El Captain and build gjs and WebKitGTK there without breaking a thing. Yes, well it was worse earlier, and so we are continuing to apply more discipline to make sure things are always in a buildable state. That's why we have a continuous integration service as well. So hopefully our development story gets better over time. I thank you for sticking with it. jhbuild on OSX also has been left there ... but at this point I wonder:why there's no MacPort (or Homebrew) to bring jhbuild already configured on Mac ? Probably because nobody has volunteered to work on it. You might consider that this is a desktop project and the work is primarily on Linux distributions. But you know, if you would like to help with that, I'm sure that we would welcome it. But honestly, I personally believe OSX is a competitor and my goal is to get developers on GNU/Linux not OSX for all their development needs. :D why doesn't ArchWiki points at that page or at this AUR package (that IMO didn't work anyway?) https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/jhbuild/ I don't think people really know about it. But I do know some of Arch Linux guys, and I'll ask them to re-point to the newcomers page. how come sanitize check keeps failing with automake when I have 1.15 installed and apparently is not greater or equal than 1.10? That I can't answer. You might want to ask those questions on desktop-devel instead of this mailing list. Other questions I might try to answer myself, some bug or doc update to file, and other things to think about, right now I'm quite happy I've finally seen the light. That's great.. I would suggest you use desktop-devel for build issues on jhbuild and the like. Best Regards and thanks for all attempts and hints You are welcome. sri On Thu, Dec 10, 2015 at 9:55 PM, Sriram Ramkrishna <s...@ramkrishna.me> wrote: On Thu, Dec 10, 2015 at 1:16 PM Sriram Ramkrishna <s...@ramkrishna.me> wrote: I have arch linux, let me see if I can build zeigeist and others. Carlos Soriano and I want to make sure that jhbuild experiece is smooth. Can you make sure that you follow all the documentation at: https://wiki.gnome.org/Newcomers That would be a good step so that we are all on the same page. Python build breakages could be because you need to set the PYTHON environment for those modules that use python2. Zeitgeist for instance is pretty old and has not seen a lot of updates as there is on maintainer. I was able to build the complete set of sources all the way up to zeitgeist. The only change I had to make was a python2 script that was running under 3.0. Once I forced it to use python2.7, it worked great. sri sri _______________________________________________ javascript-list mailing list javascript-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/javascript-list
