Re: Question about jhbuild

[Hashem Nasarat <hnasarat gmail com>]

The permissions for /usr/local probably don't allow you to create files
there.

Try doing something like:

# what directory should the source be checked out to?
checkoutroot = '~/gnome/checkout'

# the prefix to configure/install modules to (must have write access)
prefix = '~/gnome/install'
