Hey everyone,
I was successfully able to build evince.Thanks for the help!
However, when i do
$ jhbuild run evince
I get the following message:
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "overlay-scrollbar"
Gtk-Message: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

This happens because the environment variable GTK_MODULES has defined
those modules to be loaded. However, those modules are available in your
system installation (which I notice is Ubuntu).

Several alternatives:
(1). Ignore them; or,
(2). Unset GTK_MODULES in the shell before running evince
(3). Automate (2) by creating a script such as ~/local/bin/evince
(4). Automate (2) by adding a clausule in your .jhbuildrc like:
     os.environ['GTK_MODULES'] = ''

Personally, I dislike overlay-scrollbar. That is an Ubuntu thing to
change how the scrollbar behaves.  If you don't like it either, then
you can remove the packages: overlay-scrollbar and
liboverlay-scrollbar-*

GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend.  Your settings will
not be saved or shared with other applications

As the message says, there is no gsettings backend (in your jhbuild
environment).  Build dconf and this will be gone and your settings will
be stored... in dconf.
