How To Install Avant Window Navigator In Ubuntu 12.10 Quantal Quetzal


Avant Window Navigator, a very popular dock a while back, has been deleted from the official Ubuntu 12.10 repositories, so to make it easier to install, I've uploaded it to the main WebUpd8 PPA.


Please note though, that since AWN hasn't been updated in a long time, some applets won't work!

Although the application isn't used as much as a few years ago, it's can still be useful on various desktop environments / shells like GNOME Shell, Xfce, GNOME fallback session and so on. So here's how to install it in Ubuntu 12.10.
