You can generate one fairly easily using jhbuild (as that one was).  You 
can ask jhbuild to generate a DOT file like so:
   jhbuild dot [modules] > dependencies.dot

(If you don't specify any modules, it will graph what ever is listed in 
your ~/.jhbuildrc.  Just like "jhbuild build").  You can then use the 
"dot" command (part of graphviz: www.graphviz.org) to produce postscript 
or png or whatever:
   dot -Tps dependencies.dot > dependencies.ps
   dot -Tpng dependencies.dot > dependencies.png

The postscript option is probably the better one, as it can be easily 
converted to PDF, giving something that can be put up on a website.  I 
found the epstopdf script gave the best results, as it produces a PDF 
with one big page.
