** Summary changed:

- awn-manager crashed with OSError in _execute_child()
+ awn-manager crashes if gnome-panel is not installed

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: avant-window-navigator
  
- This error occurs when I add a Launcher
+ The awn-manager version in Hardy makes use of the command "gnome-
+ desktop-item-edit" (which is part of package gnome-panel) in order to
+ add new custom launchers. If that executable doesn't exist, it crashes.
  
- I use Xubuntu 8.04 (hardy) beta1 
- awn-manager version 0.2.1-0ubuntu2
+ Impact:
+ It should be a problem on Ubuntu, but (afaik) Xubuntu hasn't gnome-panel 
installed and Kubuntu neither, so if someone wants to use AWN there (s)he will 
likely experience this problem.

+ Test Case:
+ 1. Install avant-window-navigator on a Hardy box that hasn't gnome-panel 
installed.
+ 2. Either start the panel, right click on an empty surface on it and press 
"Preferences" or directly launch "awn-manager" from the terminal (or Alt+F2).
+ 3. Go to the "Launchers" tab and try to add a new launcher. This will result 
in a crash with OSError.
+ 4. Install gnome-panel and try the same again; now it should work.
