HOWTO: Install Kiba Dock + Akamaru on JAUNTY

**raafaell** · July 1st, 2009

[[[ how to install kiba-dock with akamaru on ubuntu jaunty jacklope 9.04 ]]]

---

Okay guys, this is my very first how to, so please don't be angry if I do something wrong.. but you can trust me..

As we all know, kiba-dock is NOT a very stable software on jaunty, but it will work as far as you follow the steps below..

WARNING: Do it at your own RISK!

So let's get started!

__________________________________________________

IN YOUR TERMINAL, DO:

STEP 1: Delete/Uninstall your current kiba-dock, in case you have it installed, otherwise SKIP IT.. Do the following...

Code:

cd kiba-dock/kiba-dbus-plugins
sudo make uninstall
cd ..

then

Code:

cd kiba-plugins
sudo make uninstall
cd ..

then

Code:

cd kiba-dock
sudo make uninstall
cd ..

then

Code:

cd akamaru
sudo make uninstall
cd ..

and then

Code:

cd ..

Make sure the Kiba-dock's Folder is GONE!

STEP 2: Now let's make sure we have all the dependencies! Do the following... (Start from here if you don't have kiba-dock already installed.)

Code:

sudo aptitude remove automake1.4

then

Code:

sudo apt-get install fakeroot automake1.9 build-essential libpango1.0-dev libgtk2.0-dev libgconf2-dev libglitz-glx1-dev librsvg2-dev libglade2-dev libxcomposite-dev subversion libtool libgtop2-dev python-gtk2-dev libgnome-menu-dev libgnomeui-dev libgnomevfs2-dev intltool libxml2-dev libglitz1-dev libcairo2 libdbus-1-dev libgtop2-7 libgnomevfs2-0 libgnomeui-0 librsvg2-2 python-feedparser libasound2-dev libsdl1.2-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer0.10-0 pidgin-dev libpurple-dev

Now that we have the dependencies, lets make the directories... do:

Code:

mkdir kiba-dock
cd kiba-dock

then

Code:

svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk/akamaru/ akamaru

then

Code:

svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk/kiba-dock/ kiba-dock

then

Code:

svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk/kiba-plugins/ kiba-plugins

and then

Code:

svn co https://kibadock.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/kibadock/trunk/kiba-dbus-plugins/ kiba-dbus-plugins

STEP 3: Now we have to DOWNgrade the kiba-dock files, so we will be able to make it to work.. so do the following...

Code:

svn update -r 602 *

STEP 4: Now that we have the revision 602, we will need to edit/change a few things, so please do exactly as I tell you.. So do the following...

Code:

gedit akamaru/configure.in

Once it's opened, locate the following

AC_SUBST("$AKAMARU_REQUIRES")

and change it to

AC_SUBST(AKAMARU_REQUIRES)

then save and exit!

then

Code:

gedit kiba-dock/configure.ac

Once it's opened, locate the following

AC_SUBST("$PKG_CONFIG_PATH")

and change it to

AC_SUBST(PKG_CONFIG_PATH)

then locate

AC_SUBST("$KIBA_DOCK_REQUIRES")

and change it to

AC_SUBST(KIBA_DOCK_REQUIRES)

then save and exit.

then

Code:

gedit kiba-plugins/configure.in

Once it's opened, locate the following

AC_SUBST("$KIBA_PLUGINS_REQUIRES")

and change it to

AC_SUBST(KIBA_PLUGINS_REQUIRES)

then save and exit.

STEP 5: Installing Kiba-Dock with Akamaru, (damm, when is this gonna end..) doing one line at a time.. do the following...

Code:

cd akamaru
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --exec-prefix=/usr
make && sudo make install
cd ..

then

Code:

cd kiba-dock
./autogen.sh
make && sudo make install 
cd ..

then

Code:

cd kiba-plugins
./autogen.sh
make && sudo make install
cd ..

and then

Code:

cd kiba-dbus-plugins
./autogen.sh
make && sudo make install
cd ..

AND NOW YOU ARE DONE!

NOTICE: You might need to change the kiba-dock settings, to add launchers, trash, clock etc... you can find Kiba Settings by right clicking on the dock and then choosing Kiba Settings, or simply going to: Applications/Accessories/Kiba-Settings.. and don't worry if you see just a little blue dock before changing settings.. it's normal in this case..

PEACE!

The team had to validate the howto as usual, so I had to correct a few points, but it's good to go now.

take a look on the text that you just quoted, and you WILL find it..

you can search by doing: Ctrl + F, and then write

AC_SUBST("$KIBA_DOCK_REQUIRES")

go to Kiba-Settings, select akamaru.. and then choose the settings that you want..

add a note to say that synaptic package manager must be closed. I had it open and I couldnt complete sudo aptitude commands. I'm a noob lol.
