Yeah, in fact I didn't post it as an Ubiquity bug, I didn't think it  
had to do with ubiquity necessairly. It was moved to Ubiquity by  
soneone. Though thanks for your explanation!
Greetings, Luca D. M.

> transmission-gtk vinagre xsane rhythmbox totem-gstreamer gnash  
> jokosher hydrogen avidemux kino streamtuner sound-juicer ubiquity  
> etkchanger firefox
> That's because in step number 4 ubiquity is uninstalled.
> 6) apt-get clean and apt-get autoclean
> 7) I set the default session:

> ln -s /usr/local/bin/enlightenment_start /usr/bin/x-window-manager
