1. Install AWN
First, prepare your system. Open a terminal and enter the following:
Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential subversion automake1.9
Next, Install the dependencies:
Code:
sudo apt-get install bzr libgtk2.0-dev libwnck-dev libwnck-common librsvg2.0-c libgconf2-dev libglib2.0-dev libgnome2-dev libgnome-desktop-2 librsvg2.0-c libgnome-desktop-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev gnome-common libxcomposite-dev libxdamage-dev librsvg2-dev libgtop2-dev libgnome-menu-dev libgnome-menu2 libgnome-menu-dev librsvg2.0-cil librsvg2-2 librsvg2-common librsvg2-dev libgtop2-7 libgtop2-common libgtop2-dev python-dev python-gtk2-dev python-cairo-dev python-gconf python-gnome2-dev
Finally, open a terminal and build AWN from source like so:
Code:
bzr co http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~awn-core/awn/trunk avant-window-navigator cd avant-window-navigator ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
Next we’ll install the AWN-Extras so keep that terminal open.
2. Install AWN-Extras

Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential automake1.9 autotools-dev bzr libgnome-menu-dev librsvg-dev
Get the source code from BZR:

Move to the applets directory:

cd awn-extras/awn-applets/awn-core-applets/
Compile and install:

./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install
Then simply type this to start AWN:

sudo apt-get install bzr
If you’ve already installed awn forget about the first line.
Code:

Site: http://www.planetblur.org/hosted/awn…=1&isLive=true
little script made to update bzr and compile..
