One more hint: when you configure Nautilus, you can specify
--disable-tracker to build without Tracker support. This might help if
you don't actually need Tracker.

Hi, Parin!
I am running Ubuntu GNOME 13.04 which has GNOME 3.6 and have
successfully jhbuilt nautilus.
Checking my package repositories I see that I have
libtracker-sparql-0.14-0 package installed on my system.
When I do a `jhbuild list nautilus`, I see "tracker" as dependency
for nautilus.
I'd like to ask you,
1. what command are you running to build nautilus?
Is it `jhbuild build nautilus`?
2. Have you skipped "tracker" module in your jhbuildrc?
Perhaps these could give us some clues.
I am on IRC right now, so maybe I can help you through this over
chat?

Parin,
I would strongly recommend running a newer Ubuntu if you want to
build recent versions of GNOME applications from source. In
particular, I'd recommend the daily build of Ubuntu 13.10, which you
can find here:
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/
But even 13.10 has only GNOME 3.8, which is not new enough for
building some applications from git master. In particular, Nautilus
in git master requires at least GTK 3.9.11, but Ubuntu 13.10 only
has GTK 3.8.2. Alas, the fact that Ubuntu lags behind GNOME by one
release cycle makes it much harder to develop for GNOME on Ubuntu
than it would be if Ubuntu shipped a current GNOME.
Probably your best bet in this case is to build the entire GNOME
3.10 world using jhbuild. That will take hours, but should allow
you to complete a build. This is what most GNOME developers do.
The GNOME 3 PPA (https://launchpad.net/~gnome3-team/+archive/gnome3)
sometimes contains newer versions of various GNOME packages.
Unfortunately this PPA does not yet contain GTK 3.9 for Ubuntu 13.10
(Saucy), but I'm hopeful that it will appear there in the coming
weeks.
As Hashem pointed out, the gnome-love mailing list and IRC channel
are a good place for this sort of question. Good luck!

Welcome!
GNOME uses a tool called jhbuild to automate much of the
building
from source. There's one (of a few) tutorial here
https://wiki.gnome.org/GnomeLove/JHBuildIntroduction
Still, you may need to upgrade your distribution to pull in
newer
versions of some of the dependencies.
Sorry for the brief email, but do ask back if you have
questions.
Also the gnome-l...@gnome.org and #gnome-love irc channel are
geared
toward helping newcomers.

Hi, I am trying to build nautilus from source, and
following the steps described here
https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Nautilus/Development/Nautilus.
While running './autogen.sh', I'm getting the error - "No
package 'tracker-sparql-0.16' found". The version of
this
package that can be installed via 'apt-get' is 0.14.I am
using
Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise), Gnome 3.4.2 and Nautilus 3.4.
Do I need to upgrade my distro ?
There's also a question on AskUbuntu regarding this -
http://askubuntu.com/questions/247132/where-can-i-find-tracker-sparql-0-16.
The links given are not working, and someone even
commented
that "building 'nautilus' is overkill" ?!
I want to hack on nautilus, so is there any other way of
building nautilus, or can anyone please help me how to
remove
this error ?
Sorry if this is not the mailing list for these types of
queries, I had to post it here because I didn't get any
response in IRC.
Thanks
