Re: gnome-shell Build proccess

[bijan binaee <bijanbina gmail com>]

Hi Paul !

after i take one month for build gnome i found a good way for build it.
note : i use ubuntu and i suggest you to use it too!
1. get jhbuild from source code of it in git.gnome.org(i khow you have it so please update it to latest version it is very very important!)
2. in jhbuild source find modulesets/gnome-suites-core-3.4.modules
3. copy content of http://paste.kde.org/188732/ to your .jhbuildrc in your home directory and stick in your mind to change moduleset to the modules you find in precede step
4. ensure that /opt/gnome have write permission
5. delete all of your ancient source code
6. run jhbuild update
7. run jhbuild build
8. run jhbuild shell
9. run gnome-shell --replace
*: i suggest you to don't change any step and do it what i exactly said
*: currently gnome-shell have some bug that run slow.for more information check https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=668100

Hey,

I'm also facing troubles each time I try to build GNOME Shell and I would be very happy if this would work seamlessly one day. I also work with Fedora 16 and one think I always do is to run the following command:

sed -ri 's/gpk-install-package-name/sudo yum install liboauth-devel rarian-devel rarian-compat gobject-introspection-devel/' gnome-shell-build-setup.sh

I would suggest that the gnome-shell-build-setup.sh uses yum instead of gnome-packagekit because the window with the needed packages that pops up is too large even for 24" screens. This is maybe also a bug of gnome-packagekit as you cannot hit the "install-button" anymore. The rest adds packages which are missing in the script for Fedora.

Still, at the moment I got stuck with building gjs. I get the following error:

configure: error: Package requirements (gmodule-2.0 gthread-2.0 gobject-introspection-1.0 >= 0.10.1 glib-2.0 >= 2.31.0 gobject-2.0 >= 2.18.0 mozjs185) were not met:

No package 'mozjs185' found

What can I do to workaround that? Is there anybody where building works out of the box?


Regards,
Paul
