We do not recommend using 'jhbuild bootstrap'. 
The jhbuild manual was recently updated and
http://library.gnome.org/devel/jhbuild/ will also get updated soon.

I don't know where to report bugs about
http://readthedocs.org/docs/python-gtk-3-tutorial/en/latest/install.html
as there is no section telling me. CC'ing its author.
