## Jhbuild
In order to set up Jhbuild properly before building Nmap suite, follow the tutorial at [https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK%2B/OSX/Building](https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/GTK%2B/OSX/Building), but keep reading this file if you encounter any error...
If you had any error, just type the following command to delete jhbuild,
$ rm -rf ~/bin/jhbuild ~/.local/bin/jhbuild ~/.local/share/jhbuild ~/.cache/jhbuild ~/.config/jhbuildrc ~/.jhbuildrc ~/.jhbuildrc-custom ~/jhbuild
And we'll start over together:
1. First, simply download the following script in your _$HOME_ directory and launch it ([https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk-osx/plain/gtk-osx-build-setup.sh](https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk-osx/plain/gtk-osx-build-setup.sh)):
~~~~
$ sh gtk-osx-build-setup.sh
~~~~
And add it to your _$PATH_, so you can run jhbuild without the absolute path:
~~~~
$ export PATH=$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH
~~~~
2. In `~/.jhbuildrc-custom`, make sure that this line is setup properly:
~~~~
setup_sdk(target=_target, sdk_version="native", architectures=["i386"])
~~~~
for an i386 architecture.
3. Now do,
~~~~
$ jhbuild bootstrap
~~~~
To install missing dependencies (with **--force** option to force rebuilding).
Go to **Observation** if errors appear...
4. And,
~~~~
$ jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-bootstrap
$ jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-core
$ jhbuild build meta-gtk-osx-python
~~~~
Go to **Observation** if errors appear...
### Observation
If anything goes wrong now, it'll probably be a bad link on your python binary, so check that you're using the **GTK one** instead of the original mac one:
~~~~
$ jhbuild shell
bash$ which python
~~~~
If you can see _gtk_ in the path, everything is fine with Python, else do:
~~~~
$ jhbuild build --force python
~~~~
And make an alias, to use this version of Python with Jhbuild:
~~~~
$ alias jhbuild="PATH=gtk-prefix/bin:$PATH jhbuild"
~~~~
Now continue at **step 3** with the --force option at the end of each command, to reinstall everything from scratch with this new python binary.
### Possible error
For those of you who have this error while trying to make,
~~~~
svn: E155021: This client is too old to work with the working copy at...
~~~~
You need to **update SVN**.
Go to [http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download#osx](http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download#osx) and download and install the approriate version for your OS.
Now, add the path for the new SVN version to your _$PATH_:
~~~~
$ export PATH=/opt/subversion/bin:$PATH
~~~~
## gtk-mac-bundler
Now that Jhbuild is properly configured, we need to install **gtk-mac-bundler** in order to render the bundle file:
~~~~
$ git clone git://git.gnome.org/gtk-mac-bundler
$ cd gtk-mac-bundler
$ make install
~~~~
## How to use
#### Prerequisite:
—`openssl.modules`:
This is a jhbuild moduleset that can be used to build/update openssl, libapr and libsvn.
First, locate this part in your Jhbuild `~/.jhbuildrc` configuration file:
~~~~
if not _host_tiger:
skip.append('make')
skip.append('subversion')
~~~~
And comment this line with a #:
~~~~
if not _host_tiger:
skip.append('make')
# skip.append('subversion')
~~~~
This will **stop Jhbuild from ignoring subversion**, which was in the ignore list.
#### Usage:
Now use it like this:
~~~~
$ jhbuild -m openssl.modules build nmap-deps
~~~~
