Description-en: flexible build script for package collections
Jhbuild is a program that can be used to pull a number of modules from
Git, CVS, Subversion, Bazaar and other types of repositories or from
tarballs and build them in the correct order. Unlike some build
scripts, jhbuild lets you specify what modules you want built and it
will then go and build those modules plus dependencies.
.
Although jhbuild was originally developed to build GNOME, it has
since been extended to work with other projects as well.
Extending it to handle new modules is usually trivial assuming the
build infrastructure matches the other modules it handles.
