Gwibber Lens in Ubuntu 11.04: Quicklist

Installation

Add ‘ppa:gwibber-team/ppa’ to your Software Sources via the Software Centre’s ‘edit’ menu or open a Terminal and enter: -

  • sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gwibber-team/ppa
  • sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install unity-lens-gwibber

You’ll need to log out and back in to see the lens appear on your launcher. It should also go without saying that this Gwibber lens requires Gwibber to be configured and running.
