Well - having compiled and installed required dependencies, I get en error  
when jhbuild starts on the preferences dialog:

I did not notice any errors when compiling glib or gdk-pixbuf. The rest of  
the requirements for gtk3 originate from the Ubuntu repositories.

Any ideas what causes this?

Thanks.
