Re: [gnome-love] Cannot jhbuild the webkit

[Miao Yu <will yu aol com>]

Hi everyone:

I changed the jhbuildrc file to the default one and I rebuild it. And I find that the error changes. This time the error is about the GtkCssProvider part in Gtk+3. Then I try sudo apt-get gtk+3. I am not sure the reason but it continues to install given that I have installed libgtk-3-dev -bin. Could anyone tell me why?

And then, I thought the problem should gone but I was wrong. The same error kept popping up and I had to ignore it.

After ignoring two times it came to build gnome-online-accounts, which cannot be built at all. So I ignored it again.

Then the amazing thing happened, the libgdata only asked me to install the goa-1.0 then built successfully. I am not sure whether it is "good" but at least it finished.

Because I am quite a newbie, I just guess that libgdata needs goa, and goa needs webkit. But goa has a release while the webkit 2.0.10 does not have even for Ubuntu whole distos. 

Thank you for you guys and have a fantastic night!

William Yu

William,

if your only goal is to build libgdata, I think there's a much simpler way.  I think all the libraries libgdata needs are already present in Ubuntu 12.10.  So you shouldn't even need to use jhbuild.  I think you could simply do this:

$ sudo apt-get build-dep libgdata

$ git clone git://git.gnome.org/libgdata
$ cd libgdata

$ ./autogen.sh

$ make

$ sudo make install

It might be that easy.  Want to try that?

Hi:

After trying that, I got this error:

checking for GTK... yes

checking for WEBKIT_GTK... no

configure: error: Package requirements (webkitgtk-3.0 >= 2.1.90) were not met:

Requested 'webkitgtk-3.0 >= 2.1.90' but version of WebKit is 1.10.0

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you

installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables WEBKIT_GTK_CFLAGS

and WEBKIT_GTK_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.

See the pkg-config man page for more details.

*** Error during phase configure of gnome-online-accounts: ########## Error running ./autogen.sh --prefix /opt/gnome --libdir '/opt/gnome/lib64'  --enable-debug --enable-maintainer-mode --disable-gtk-doc --enable-introspection --enable-silent-rules --enable-compile-warnings=no  *** [27/28]

It is exactly the same as what I got before. And the skip list I use is here:

skip = [ 'mozilla', 'dbus', 'pulseaudio', 'upower', 'gudev', 'NetworkManager', 'libproxy', 'libxml2', 'gtk+-2', 'sqlite3', 'nspr', 'nss', 'libmusicbrainz', 'libdiscid', 'gmime', 'gnome-disk-utility', 'gypsy', 'WebKit' ]

Do you know where I am wrong?

You can try adding:

ignore_suggests = True

to your .jhbuildrc. That will build only the modules strictly required.
Maybe one of the suggested modules was asking for webkit in your case.

At last but not least, it is a good practice to reply to the mailing
list. So everybody can learn or add new information.
