Re: gtkmm compilation issue via jhbuild

[Kjell Ahlstedt <kjell ahlstedt bredband net>]

jhbuild builds cairomm 1.15.1 from  a tarball, but gtkmm at present 
requires the latest cairomm from the git repository. See 
https://www.cairographics.org/cairomm/ for instructions how to get 
cairomm from git.

Do you know that gtkmm and gtk+ are now unusually unstable? They will 
become gtkmm-4.0 and gtk+-4.0, which will not be ABI-compatible with 
gtkmm-3.0 and gtk+-3.0. If you want less unstable programs, you can 
build gtkmm-3 with jhbuild.
