Whilst browsing through the synaptic package manager, I came across a tool called glunarclock, which is "GNOME Lunar Clock displays the current phase of the Moon as an applet for the gnome panel. It also provides various astronomical data such as clock functions, rise and set times and current coordinates for the moon." For various reasons I won't go into, I would find such a tool immensely useful. So I used Synaptic to install it. However, I can't get it to run. Can't find it in the panel like it says, and can't get it to run from command line... The readme says 'If you're compiling and installing from a tarball and can't launch the applet from the panel after installation, check the location of the files glunarclock-applet-2, glunarclock.schemas and GNOME_GLunarclockApplet_Factory.server as compared to other similar files on your system and then try using the --prefix and --sysconfdir options as described in the 'INSTALL' file. For example, you might want to configure like this: $ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --libexecdir=/usr/lib/gnome-panel Installing to the default of /usr/local usually makes it so that GNOME can't properly load the glunarclock applet.' However, I can't find an INSTALL file, and I don't really understand what its talking about. I'm probably missing something completely obvious. Anyone have any ideas?
