Here's the error: ] make[1]: Entering directory `/home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client' GISCAN dconf-0.3.gir /home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client/tmp-introspectzFhowp/dconf-0.3: error while loading shared libraries: libdconf.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Command '['/home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client/tmp-introspectzFhowp/dconf-0.3', '--introspect-dump=/home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client/tmp-introspectzFhowp/types.txt,/home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client/tmp-introspectzFhowp/dump.xml']' returned non-zero exit status 127 make[1]: *** [dconf-0.3.gir] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/quickridge/gnome-shell/source/dconf/client' make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 *** Error during phase build of dconf I have tried to build gnome-shell from scratch to get around this, but have been unsuccessful so far.
I encountered the same problem. I asked the google and found others are having this problem. See http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9638313
Same here with debian squeeze.
I was able to get gnome-shell to build by setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH to ..../source/dconf/client to access libdconf.so.0 and exporting it. gnome-shell fails to run after the build.
