Ok.
I really appreciate the help.
It looks like after adding the following to ~/.jhbuild-custom
moduleset=os.environ['HOME'] + '/ide/finance/grisbi.mac/grisbi.modules'

I can just run
jhbuild build grisbi

Which behaved differently than
not having module set in ~/.jhbuild-custom and running
jhbuild -m grisbi.modules build

Without it doesn't pull anything down.
With it added to module set it will pull down the grisbi source and
build it for me.

I noticed in the module set multiple grisbi options to use.
I think I want grisbi-devel so that I am working off the git main line.

The question then is, as the sources appear to go in ~/gtk/source how
do you work with git to provide patches (that is another question I
was getting to anyway, since source forge doesn't seem to have a fork
option like github which I'm more used to working with)

And there is a grisbi-gtk3 option but there are lots of warnings about
gtk3 and Lion.
Which version do you recommend I work with?

Thanks.
p.s. Once I have all this sorted is it work writing this up somewhere
for the next noob to take advantage of?
