gtk+ with jhbuild

Dear friends,
Can you kindly help me installing gtk+ using jhbuild? My final goal is to install Epiphany3.6, and did what is said in https://live.gnome.org/Epiphany:

jhbuild buildone glib glib-networking libsoup gtk+ WebKit epiphany

but in gtk+, I am getting error, as posted http://pastebin.com/miN32M2t

On the website it says

If you are in a hurry and assuming you have a reasonably up-to-date system you might be able to run Epiphany by just building a few dependencies instead of most of the GNOME stack. Try this:

so its clear that it might not actually work in which case you need to modify it to include more of the gtk stack that you are missing. In your case ATK. Try adding atk to the command line and see how it goes. ATK and GTK's relationship has undergone some major changes in GTK3 and its frankly still quite a mess and will be until at least 3.8

I'm also running F17 and I can build gtk+ just fine. I can't quite get the whole gnome 3.6 stack yet, but the core stuff is building okay. Building with jhbuild can be a bit tricky. You gotta take each error one at a time--some might mean you need to build something else first and some might be resolved by installing some -devel packages through yum.

A good start is to follow https://live.gnome.org/JhbuildDependencies/Fedora#Fedora_16.2BAC8-17 first. When you get stuck on an error you may want to check in one of the gnome IRC channels (related to the package being built).
