After HD installation+Upgrade to GNU Utils+Enable Apt+Synaptic, I tryed to install Abiword via Synaptic. after select for install, the selection mark (blue triangles) disappears and Synaptic promt tells: 6 packg to install and 44 to remove. I proceed and the sistem becomes unuseful 〔ven LILO was removed!.
OK... new HD installation+Upgrade+Enable+Synaptic and now tryed to instal abiword from myDSL... everything looks fine and Abiword icon appears in screen BUT it do not works at clicking. The icon's properties says command /usr/bin/start_abiword; so I open Xterminal and as root made the next:
sudo /usr/bin/start_abiword And theese is the answer
sudo: /usr/sbin/update_gdkpixbuf-loaders: command not found
sudo: /usr/sbin/update-gtkimmodules: command not found
sudo: /usr/sbin/update-pango-modules : command not found
sudo: /usr/sbin/update-pangox-aliases: command not found
/usr/bin/abiword: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-xll-2.0.so.0: can not open shared objects file: Not such file or directory
What is happening??? What is wrong??? Your advices will be very much appreciated. Thanks in advance

soberon,
You need to read the info files when using MyDSL extensions.
It is apparent that you selected Abiword gtk2 version. The info file states that it requires the gtk2.dsl extension. When you grab the gtk2.dsl extension it must be run/setup from the menu.
