Re: Error while building Rhythmbox - glib-compile-schemas

Hi Ankit,

Someone else posted the same problem yesterday. You need the file 
yelp.m4, which seems to generally in a package called yelp-tools. It's 
a macro for automake that help with generating documentation. Install 
that and then make sure jhbuild reruns autogen and you should be all 
set!
