Building with jhbuild

[Thijs Vermeir <thijsvermeir telenet be>]

Hello,

I am trying to build Gnome from CVS via jhbuild.
But the build on my libgnome failed.

-- FROM TINDERBOX
grep: /usr/local/lib/libhowl.la: No such file or directory
/bin/sed: can't read /usr/local/lib/libhowl.la: No such file or directory
libtool: link: `/usr/local/lib/libhowl.la' is not a valid libtool archive
make[3]: *** [libgnome-2.la] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2
-- END FROM TINDERBOX

I am using Ubuntu and I'm sure that the libhowl is installed. on my system.
Jhbuild has also a made a libhowl.la file in Mybuilddir/lib

Is the problem here that he points to the wrong folder?
How can I solve this problem?

Thanks,
