I added a check for this. Please update sugar-jhbuild (git pull) and see if it works. You should get the following when trying to start a build: [EMAIL PROTECTED] sugar-jhbuild]$ ./sugar-jhbuild build Checking dependencies... Missing external dependencies: docbook-style-xsl This is also the name of the package to install in Fedora, not sure what's the equivalent on Ubuntu. Install that package and you should be fine.
