Thanks a lot for the tut. Works like a charm & much lighter & more stable than Kiba-Dock. Thanks again.

I got the following problem. Did i do something wrong?

checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0… yes
checking for DEPS… configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0
awn
libwnck-1.0
libglade-2.0
libgnome-menu
gnome-desktop-2.0
librsvg-2.0
libgtop-2.0
glib-2.0
dbus-1
dbus-glib-1
libsexy
gconf-2.0
gdk-2.0
gdk-pixbuf-2.0
libnotify
vte) were not met:

No package ‘awn’ found

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.

Sorry, I left out a line in the previous post. These two lines should be entered into the CLI:

sudo ln -s /usr/local/lib/libawn.so.0 /usr/lib/libawn.so.0
sudo apt-get install libsexy-dev libnotify-dev libvte-dev

I have exactly the same problem and output as ryanaivey21. The sudo apt-get -f install does not solve the problem. Anyone an idea what this might be?

try to run the following command

Hey Guys,

I have a problem with some things…

I followed the guide, and then ran into some problems, but then googled it, and got some answers, yet I still have one problem…

Where above, it says you have to cd awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/ I get the response
me@me-desktop:~$ cd awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/
bash: cd: awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/: No such file or directory

I also just searched my awn folders, but cannot find awn-core-applets…

Please help me…

Thanks,
Christiaan
