Re: [gnome-love] error in jhbuild and vala

[Marina Zhurakhinskaya <marinaz redhat com>]

Hi Anna,

One thing you can try is to:

1) back up your ~/.jhbuildrc and ~/.jhbuildrc-custom
2) run gnome-shell setup script that will install many packages you need for gnome-development; you can find 
it here: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeShell#Building ; the command is
curl -O http://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-shell/plain/tools/build/gnome-shell-build-setup.sh
/bin/bash gnome-shell-build-setup.sh
(there are also some relevant things you can install by instead following instructions on 
https://live.gnome.org/DeveloperTools/Installation/Fedora , but gnome-shell script is known to be very 
comprehensive)
3) restore your original ~/.jhbuildrc and ~/.jhbuildrc-custom
4) start gnome-documents build again; try "wipe directory and start over" option if you get an error again

In general, in many cases it's a lot faster to ask for help with such build errors on IRC. If people who can 
help are around, you would get answers almost instantly, and they can ask you more about your setup if they 
need additional info. You can ask for help in #documents, #gnome-hackers, and #gnome-love channels. You can 
learn more about joining IRC here: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeIrcChannels

If you don't get an answer or if you can't join IRC for some reason, you are welcome to e-mail your questions 
to this list, of course.

Thanks,
Marina

Hi Anna, 

the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL and also the AC_DISABLE_STATIC macros are defined in 
the libtool package [1] (on ubuntu). But from [2] I can see there is 
also a devel package named libtool-ltdl-devel you can try to install 
that one, but I am not sure that will be it. Just a thought.
