Bug Description

Binary package hint: avant-window-navigator

Hello,

I installed AWN on lucid and except of an other problem I found this one:

When clicking on Dock Preferences the output says the following:

therefore it seems that a dependency of awn is missing or add a dialog with the info to install the needed package, thanks!
