Awn

Installling?

Asked by Westin Lohne

I tried to install it using http://wiki.awn-project.org/index.php?title=DistributionGuides#Ubuntu . I messed it up by not adding the lines to the bottom of the /etc/apt/sources.list....then i found this website http://www.getdeb.net/release.php?id=1621 that is the deb downloader for my Ubuntu 7.10 34bit comp. It then says something about conflicting with some file....Can anyone please tell me how to get it working and give me some other directions to install it and or download site.

Thanks,
Westin

Please uninstall all Awn/avant-window-navigator-related packages (especially the one from getdeb) and use the instructions here:

 i tried those directions...when i search, 7 results come up(not three) i select each thing that has avant or awn in front of it....i right click and install and this comes up

To be installed:
python-alsooudio
python-libgmail

I then click Mark, but then.....it says

avant-window-navigator:
 Depends: libawn0 but it is not going to be installed
 Depends: libwnck18 (>=2.15.90) but it is not installable

avant-window-navigator-bzr:

Package avant-window-navigator-bzr has no available version, but exists in the database.
This typically means that the package was mentioned in a dependency and never uploaded, has been obsoleted or is not available with the contents of sources.list

awn-core-applets:
 Depends: libawn0 but it is not going to be installed
 Depends: libwnck18 (>=2.15.90) but it is not installable

awn-manager:
 Depends: avant-window-navigator (= 0.1.9-1+bzr20071006~3v1ubuntu0)

Any help?

You want to uninstall avant-window-navigator, libawn0, awn-core-applets, and awn-manager. You want to install avant-window-navigator-bzr and any other awn package that ends in -bzr.
