Dear Ritesh,

Thanks a lot for your hints.  Now, I follow your above hints, and based 
on the documents given here:
http://developer.gnome.org/jhbuild/3.5/getting-started.html.en

I get the following result on my pc:

--------------------
werner@debian-asus:~/software/gnome/jhbuild$ jhbuild build gtk+
Required packages:
  System installed packages which are too old:
    (none)
  No matching system package installed:
    libuuid (uuid.pc)
    libpng (libpng.pc)
    pam
    ppp
    python-devel (python.pc, required=2.5)
    gperf
    libXft (xft.pc, required=2.0.0)
    wireless-tools (required=25)
    libffi (libffi.pc, required=3.0.0)
    libacl
    zlib (zlib.pc, required=1.0)
    libjpeg
    libtiff
jhbuild build: Required system dependencies not installed. Install using 
the command 'jhbuild sysdeps --install' or to ignore system dependencies 
use command-line option --nodeps
-------------------------

According the above output, I should use the jhbuild sysdeps --install 
for the next step.

The issue: by invoking the command:

 jhbuild build gtk+

What's the version of gtk+ will be installed on my system?  As you can 
see, the above command doesn't give the version number for gtk+.  Thanks 
in advance.

Regards
