8.10 problems

[Guy Thouret]

The package is also envyng-gtk on 8.10.

I Just tried it:

guy at guy-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk
The following extra packages will be installed:
  envyng-core
The following NEW packages will be installed
  envyng-core envyng-gtk
...  
Selecting previously deselected package envyng-core.
(Reading database ... 152873 files and directories currently installed.)
...
Setting up envyng-core (2.0.1) ...
Setting up envyng-gtk (1.1.1ubuntu3) ...

guy at guy-laptop:~$ envyng 
ERROR: you need to provide a parameter:
   "-t" for the textual interface
   "-g" for the GTK frontend (Not yet available)
   "-k" for the QT4 frontend
   "--uninstall-all" to completely remove what EnvyNG has done

guy at guy-laptop:~$ envyng -g
ERROR: Make sure that envyng-qt is installed

Seems like the package is there but the gtk interface is not finished
and it would prefer if I install envyng-qt instead!

Guy.
