Googling ubuntu 12.04 and glib-compile-schemas seems to suggest it's in 
the libglib2.0-bin package.  I don't have an Ubuntu install, so I 
can't check.  You also seem to be missing the glib development files - 
note the complaining about a missing glib-2.0.pc.  That'll be 
something like libglib2.0-dev.

Here's a post about using apt/dpkg tools to find what package provides 
a file:
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/equivalent-of-rpm-qf-command/

On my debian box, I get
$ dpkg -S glib-compile-schemas
libglib2.0-0:amd64: 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/glib-compile-schemas

I hope that helps. I'm not really familiar with JHBuild.

Matt
