This is a log of problem (and hopefuly some solution) met while installing GNOME on Debian Wheezy using jhbuild

Too bad, it didn't work, but looks like a simple matter of sudo: 

# sudo apt-get install libbluetooth-dev lib32v4l-dev libwavpack-dev libtag1-dev libdaemon-dev libvpx-dev libpoppler-glib-dev libcanberra-gtk-dev libexempi-dev libavahi-ui-gtk3-dev libpulse-dev

jhbuild build: Required system dependencies not installed. Install using the command 'jhbuild sysdeps --install' or to ignore system dependencies use command-line option --nodeps

Ok, here I'm stuck. Let's try the ignore deps path

Trying the "--nodeps" path

p11-kit

# jhbuild build --nodeps
[…]
configure: error: libtasn1 not found. Building without it results in significant loss of functionality. To proceed use --without-libtasn1
*** Error during phase configure of p11-kit: ########## Error running ./configure --prefix /opt/gnome --libdir '/opt/gnome/lib64'  --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc  *** [19/85]

  [1] Rerun phase configure
  [2] Ignore error and continue to build
  [3] Give up on module
  [4] Start shell
  [5] Reload configuration
  [6] Go to phase "wipe directory and start over"
  [7] Go to phase "clean"
  [8] Go to phase "distclean"

Description-en: Manage ASN.1 structures (development)
 Manage ASN1 (Abstract Syntax Notation One) structures.
 The main features of this library are:
   * on-line ASN1 structure management that doesn't require any C code
     file generation.
   * off-line ASN1 structure management with C code file generation
     containing an array.
   * DER (Distinguish Encoding Rules) encoding
   * no limits for INTEGER and ENUMERATED values

… it looks like libtasn1-dev isn't compatible with later version. I can feel the conflictual headache coming :P

Indeed 

# sudo updatedb
# locate asn1|grep pc
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig/libtasn1.pc
# # and:
# grep addpath .config/jhbuildrc 
addpath('PKG_CONFIG_PATH', '/etc/alternatives')

addpath('PKG_CONFIG_PATH', '/usr/share/pkgconfig')
#addpath('PKG_CONFIG_PATH', '/usr/share/aclocal/')
addpath('ACLOCAL_PATH', '/usr/share/aclocal/')

So what's wrong?

polkit

Giving up the previous module, the next error come with polkit: 

configure: error: libsystemd-login autoconfigured, but system does not appear to use systemd
*** Error during phase configure of polkit: ########## Error running ./autogen.sh --prefix /opt/gnome --libdir '/opt/gnome/lib64'  --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc  *** [30/85]

We will ignore for now, and try to compile other modules
