Andrius,
jhbuild does a two-step install. It first runs make or ninja install with DESTDIR=$PREFIX/_jhbuild/root-project-name; make/ninja is supposed to install to $DESTDIR/$PREFIX. Once make/ninja reports that the install completed normally jhbuild moves everything to $PREFIX and deletes $DESTDIR.
So if the files wound up as e.g. $DESTDIR/bin/bluefish instead of $DESTDIR/$PREFIX/bin/bluefish then when jhbuild went back to do the move it wouldn't be able to find the files. That's where I'd start investigating:
'Ignoring uninstalled package:' is from the triggers feature. I don't know anything about that, but there's a triggers/README in the jhbuild source tree with a brief description.

John,
on occasion I learned more about jhbuild internals, which is nice. In the past I was doing some hacks for building, however, it seems that actually I could have used jhbuild functionality to do the same.
I am using autotools (make) to build my program.
It seems that jhbuild operates not exactly how you described.
$PREFIX on my system is set to /Users/andrius/gtk/inst (judging by --prefix during autogen). This is getting set in jhbuildrc file, I think.
Install is done with following command:
make DESTDIR=/Users/andrius/gtk/inst/_jhbuild/root-bluefish install
and then make adds its own prefix /usr/local (which is I think pretty standard for Linux program), so resulting install directory is
/Users/andrius/gtk/inst/_jhbuild/root-bluefish/usr/local/ where bin, share etc folders are created.
In does not looks like install is done in $DESTDIR/$PREFIX, one also should take into account extra prefix added for Linux. While code of jhbuild uses the same $PREFIX for both DESTDIR, and install dir, which does not look right for me.
Is there any workaroud?
Andrius
