After running
$avant-window-navigator

I get the following error…

“error while loading shared libraries: libawn.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”

what should I do. I’ve followed every step in your article. When I tried to run it from the menu…nothing happend.
3 toor // Oct 5, 2007 at 5:05 pm

@Kelbizzle: OK. Now you enter source code directory, run the following commands:
./configure --prefix=/usr make sudo make install
4 Rich // Oct 7, 2007 at 12:51 am

If you don’t want to compile, add

deb http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/ gutsy avant-window-navigator
deb-src http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/ gutsy avant-window-navigator

and install

I have an error:

W: GPG error: http://download.tuxfamily.org gutsy Release: The following signatures couldn’t be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY 576856718434D43A
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems

I already try to run apt-get update , no luck.
6 toor // Oct 7, 2007 at 5:16 pm

@eduard: You need to add GPG key:

wget http://download.tuxfamily.org/syzygy42/8434D43A.gpg sudo apt-key add 8434D43A.gpg
7 eduard // Oct 7, 2007 at 6:34 pm

Working now. Thank you
8 j // Oct 7, 2007 at 10:13 pm

Out of curiosity, what GTK and decorator themes are you using? They look really good.

Also, make sure you have python-gnome2-dev installed as well, or the make process will hang because of a missing file…
9 toor // Oct 7, 2007 at 10:58 pm

@j: Glossy. Thanks for your tip.
10 xcesarfrancox // Oct 8, 2007 at 7:24 am

Hi! How do I uninstall it if compiled so I can install it from repos?
11 toor // Oct 8, 2007 at 11:11 pm

@xcesarfrancox: Try this:

sudo make uninstall
12 Shane // Oct 9, 2007 at 8:16 pm

I have followed the instructions, but I seem to get stuck at the second last step:

After I type in:

Get the source:
bzr co http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~awn-extras/awn-extras/trunk awn-extras

I end up with the terminal window stating that it is in the “Fetch Phase” 1/4 and not much is happening. Any ideas?

Thank you
13 Shane // Oct 9, 2007 at 8:55 pm

Hi, I have followed all the steps for installing, and I am trying to install on xubuntu 6.10. When I get to the last step:

” 3. cd awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/
./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install”

I get the error message that states:

bash: cd: awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/: no such file or directory”

Any ideas?
14 toor // Oct 9, 2007 at 9:01 pm

@Shane: Are you get the source?
15 Chris // Oct 11, 2007 at 5:29 pm

I love how simple you describe everything. Great Job!
16 Shane // Oct 15, 2007 at 10:52 am

@ Toor @ could you rephrase the question please?
17 NILREM // Oct 15, 2007 at 1:50 pm

PLEASE can you explain what to do after I get msg below:
“avant-window-navigator: error while loading shared libraries: libawn.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”
explanation from TOOR is good for some experts, not inmy case
18 NILREM // Oct 17, 2007 at 9:41 am

Problem solved
19 Nookie // Oct 18, 2007 at 1:26 pm

NILREM:

How did u solve that problem?

20 toor // Oct 19, 2007 at 6:47 pm

@Nookie: You can see also here.
21 Tom // Oct 20, 2007 at 6:15 am

When I try to download the GPG key for the repo in the comments, it is no longer available. Is there a new key?
22 NILREM // Oct 20, 2007 at 11:07 am

NOOKIE
Enter like this in terminal:
“cd avant-window-navigator” enter
then from
./configure –prefix=/usr
make
sudo make install

am new in ubuntu so that “cd” is the basic

Hey everyone. Just install it with this deb. It worked for me!!! I hope it works for all of you. I am so excited now!

29 toor // Oct 21, 2007 at 5:11 pm

@nizar: You must first run compiz or xcompmgr. If you have not installed compiz or xcompmgr, please install it.

Hi have the following error messageand dependency problems:configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively, you may set the environment variables DEPS_CFLAGS
and DEPS_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
See the pkg-config man page for more details.

Where do I get the stuff. apt-get wont find it.
32 toor // Oct 24, 2007 at 3:41 am

@django: You can execute this command:

sudo apt-get install libsexy2
33 django // Oct 24, 2007 at 8:48 am

@toor

libsexy2 was already installed. Seems the configfile can’t find it. Or is anything else missing.
34 django // Oct 24, 2007 at 11:59 am

@toor
made it work with the deb from above. Anyway would be intrested in my mistake and the solution.

I have another kind of error:

Sono occorsi degli errori processando:

The error means that the installation tried to overwrite the /usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.Notifications.service yet present in the package notification-daemon.

Can someboby help me ?

38 tariq // Oct 29, 2007 at 3:22 am

Hi have the same problem as ‘django’ and I tried to install the libsexy2 as toor mentioned. but it was already installed.

How did you fix this problem django. which deb are you referring to in your message…a bit more help would be appreciated
39 Espen // Oct 30, 2007 at 5:12 am

@38, and the others with libsexy-missing problems:

sudo apt-get install libgnome-menu-dev librsvg2-dev libgtop2-dev libsexy-dev libnotify-dev

Makes it work for me.
40 shashi // Nov 4, 2007 at 12:44 pm

I have same problem as Edouard C .

44 rokon // Nov 8, 2007 at 12:51 am

looks like i’m not the first one with this problem. the installation was smooth. i see it under application>accessories. but when i click nothing happens. i couldn’t load the AWN manager either.

please help.
45 Toor // Nov 8, 2007 at 6:56 am

@Tomas: You can get it from here.
46 Toor // Nov 8, 2007 at 7:02 am

@rokon: You need to install a compositing manager. For example, Compiz Fusion.
47 precipitous // Nov 8, 2007 at 1:09 pm

Installed on Ubuntu 7.10. Everything went fine - It is listed under applications>accessories, but it will not launch. Neither will the AWN Manager… I have Compiz Fusion, and its configuration management tools installed… What now?
48 precipitous // Nov 9, 2007 at 10:31 am

Ignore my last post. A second reboot fixed the problem… BTW, great website/tutorial!!!
49 ron // Nov 10, 2007 at 1:55 am

On Installation , I could not run the Navigator from Application I hit several times but nothing happens? same with Avant Prefrences…

however, after install, awn preferences doesn’t show up under ’system’, and i can’t get them to load via awn either. suggestions?
53 Jared // Nov 17, 2007 at 6:28 pm

Well, i exited out of the terminal when i did step 2 on the secound part… And it was half way done loading, and now when i type it in the terminal, it says: bzr: ERROR: Target directory “awn-extras” already exists.

What should i do???
Do i unistall that part and install it, if yes, how???
54 Shaan // Nov 17, 2007 at 6:51 pm

i get the same error message as shane that is

bash: cd: awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/: no such file or directory”

when i checked then awn-applets exists
but it has only awn-extras-applets and helloworld-applet folder none of which have anything such as autogen.sh

any suggestions

I’ve installed avant-window-navigator and everything seemed to go without a hitch, but when i tried to excecute the program from

Applications>Accessories>Avant-Window-Navigator nothing happened. the program wouldn’t even start. I tried to uninstall it by using the Add/Remove, but it doesnt even recognize it as a program, or at least it isn’t registering as one to be removed from my computer. The icon is there though. any help?

You do not have a repository in you /etc/apt/sources.list for

Please see:
