If you want to build gedit development version, then the easiest way
is to use jhbuild [1]. Basically, you need to follow the steps in the
jhbuild manual and some hints.

1. You need to use gnome-suites-3.0 module set.
2.  Using jhbuild build gedit can be very slow since it will compile
all the dependencys, which are a lot, so what I do is to do

$jhbuild build gtk+-3
$jhbuild build libpeas
$jhbuild build gtksourceview
$jhbuild buildone gedit

Of course they are easier ways (there is a way of say to jhbuild to
ignore some dependencies when not building, but I do not know how to
do this).


Greetings,

José

PS: I used to hate jhbuild, and probably it will get you some time to
get used to it, but once you do, it makes your live easier. Specially
for this dev cycle.
