so a quick analysis:

The build initially broke on 30535c16924a3da7b47ea87190d929d617d95c5a
(nspawn: add file system locks for controlling access to container
images), due to missing kernel #defines probably triggered by an older
kernel on the jenkins machine. This was fixed in
f4a53250acb3aea2eb5ebed059887b9417afbd9e (missing: add macros for OFD
locks), but unfortunately a missing zlib dependency introduced by
edce2aed3aa93b84f7b4c70412bdb665da2977b0 (import: support importing
qcow2 images) had already broken the build again.

So the solution would be to make zlib available on the jenkins machine
(David?), or make zlib an optional dep (Lennart?).

about the github mirror not being updated: that is how David set up
the jenkins, so the github mirror is always at the latest successfully
building commit.
