I am trying to build WebKit using http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingGtk It looks like it downloads all the dependencies and builds them, steps 1 and 2 on that page complete successfully. But then running Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --gtk fails with CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:97 (MESSAGE): Could NOT find LibSoup: Found unsuitable version "2.40.0", but required is at least "2.40.3" (found /usr/include/libsoup-2.4) Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:286 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) Source/cmake/FindLibSoup.cmake:51 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS) Source/cmake/OptionsGTK.cmake:172 (find_package) CMakeLists.txt:139 (include) Looks like my linux distro has a close-but-not-close-enough version of libsoup, and I guess the dependency-fetching steps didn't pull it in for some reason?

Did JHBuild fail?

Not sure what the cause of the error was (JHBuild or otherwise, I don't know much about the build system here I'm afraid), but I pulled the latest now and it builds. So it seems to have been fixed meanwhile.
