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? -Sindhu On Wed, Sep 4, 2013 at 12:53 AM, Adam Dingle <a...@medovina.org> wrote: > Parin, > > I would strongly recommend running a newer Ubuntu if you want to build > recent versions of GNOME applications from source.
