Thanks, beside GtkClutter and WebKit2 that won't build with the current configuration (but I am sure I can solve this and stop bothering people with this thread) there is just one point I'd like to better understand:

AFAICT one of the strongest point about the GTK+ project is its cross platform compatibility: http://www.gtk.org/features.php

If `jhbuild` is the only way to build, test, and deploy in these platforms I think there should be some interest in making it a smooth experience also in other platforms indeed.

For instance, I'd love to help with an homebrew recipe but I couldn't manage myself to make anything work for me so I'm sure I could be the worst person here to propose something like that :-)

Anyway, happy at the end of the day everything worked. I might contact some ArchLinux chap myself to at least update their page with some extra info I've discovered.

Best Regards
