jhbuild 3.4.0

jhbuild is another set of scripts for building GNOME 2. They are still a little rough around the edges, but may still be useful to you.

They don't enforce any particular checkout, build or install directories for your gnome2 setup (this is deduced from the config
file).

You must have Python >= 2.2 installed for jhbuild to run.

Note that the included module sets build most software from CVS (or equivalent), so you may encounter occasional build failures.

If you want to build from released tarballs instead, some options include:

* use a jhbuild module set comprised of tarball releases:

* use GARNOME: a GAR configuration for building Gnome from tarballs:
