Re: jhbuild build error - vala

Ebru,

OK, great.  You certainly don't need to build Vala - you can simply 
install it like this:

$ sudo apt-get install valac-0.20

In fact, you won't need to use jhbuild to build anything.  I just built 
gmpc on my system (I'm running Ubuntu 13.10, by the way) to see what 
you need to do.  It's pretty easy.  You'll need to build only two 
packages from source: libmpd (which gmpc depends on) and gmpc itself.  
Here we go:

1. Get the sources for libmpd:

$ git clone git://repo.or.cz/libmpd.git

2. Build and install it:

$ cd libmpd
$ sudo apt-get build-dep libmpd
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ sudo make install

3. Get the sources for gmpc:

$ cd ..
$ git clone git://repo.or.cz/gmpc.gi

4. Build and install:

$ cd gmpc
$ sudo apt-get build-dep gmpc
$ sudo apt-get install libglyr-dev   (another library I think you will 
need)
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
$ sudo make install

I think that will work.  If you run into trouble, let us know again 
here and we'll try to help.  cheers -

adam
