wunderlist not execuring on ubuntu 12.04 64bit

Question

I am having some trouble with wunderlist in ubuntu 12.04 64bit.

I followed the instructions on http://www.webupd8.org/2012/01/how-to-install-wunderlist-in-ubuntu.html and http://support.wunderlist.com/customer/portal/questions/63885-ubuntu-11-1-installation-?new=63885

It seemed to have installed on my system, the icon is available in my menu. However when I click to run the app it does nothing.

When I try to run the app through terminal with /opt/Wunderlist-1.2.4/Wunderlist

I get this response /opt/Wunderlist-1.2.4/Wunderlist: error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

And that is where the files where installed in, unless I am doing it wrong?

Checking on one of my systems which package provide the shared library mentioned returns

$ dpkg -S /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0
libgtk2.0-0: /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0

So you probably have to run

sudo apt-get install libgtk2.0-0

to install the shared library that wundelist complains missing...

Edit:
Turned out the link on the Wunderlist website points by default to the 32bit version of Wunderlist. On a 64bit system (as you have), it's better to use the 64bit version of Wunderlist, which is just a little bit hidden: https://s3.amazonaws.com/wunderlist/wunderlist-1.2.4-linux-64.tgz
Using this version and the method described in the links in your post, we got it working!

Will this affect my system in any way? – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 21:08
Just ran the code and got the following
libgtk2.0-0 is already the newest version. The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required: libunistring0:i386 libgomp1:i386 libcroco3:i386 libgettextpo0:i386 Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them. 0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 7 not upgraded.

Ok, so we need to dig a little deeper! You have to make sure that wundelist finds the library and that the library is of the right flavor (32bit). Please paste the output of ldd /opt/Wunderlist-1.2.4/Wunderlist and file /opt/Wunderlist-1.2.4/Wunderlist, if available – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 21:22
Did you download the 64bit version of wunderlist? You are using a 64bit ubuntu 12.04 and the default link at the wunderlist website points to a 32bit version (at least for me). The 64bit link is here – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 21:44

that is the out put of ldd /opt/Wunderlist-1.2.4/Wunderlist – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 21:57
Got it, so you've installed the 32bit version, since the library it finds are 32bit libraries, e.g. libdl.so.2 => /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0xf772a000) – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 21:58

I see within the download I have there is both 32 and 64 and one install script, funny that it would detect 32 and install that on a 64 bit system – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 22:03
To make it work you probably have to install 32bit versions of the libraries that are "not found". Or try to install the 64bit version of Wunderlist. Do you have the ia32-libs already installed? – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 22:10
I should have if i can recall correctly, but i am not 100% sure – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 22:11
So I would propose to use the 64bit version from https://s3.amazonaws.com/wunderlist/wunderlist-1.2.4-linux-64.tgz and then continue with the script, better, the exact steps mentioned in your question. The script you are referring to just makes Wunderlist work, as far as I understood it did not directly downloaded the program. – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 22:16
I will try this and post back here when the download is compete. The fogger way could work for me as well, only problem I am concerned about is when I lose connection and cant access my lists. – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 22:20
let us continue this discussion in chat – ceage Aug 17 '12 at 22:21

Here is an alternative to installing Wunderlist:

First you will need to install Fogger. You can install it by clicking on the button below.

Then you will need to go to this site and follow these instructions.

Hope this helps you!

Within the customization process they talk about a .js and a .css file, where do i get these files? i cant seem to find them? Edit - Scratch this, found it – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 21:40
Just one thing, do I have any off line functionality with this method? – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 21:50
I think you won't. What Fogger does, is get a website, and integrate it with the desktop. – Max Tither Aug 17 '12 at 21:52
loading the website every time I want to use it could be a bit redundant at times, specialy when my connection is slow. – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 21:59
Where will i be able to find info on how to remove a Fogger app I have made? I forgot to add the icon the setup and wish to redo the setup of it – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 22:06
If you go into Preferences on the Fogger, you can delete it from there. – Max Tither Aug 17 '12 at 22:10
Awesome! This will be great way to setup fast access to google+ facebook And other web apps that dont have any desktop or linux programs, thank you for this! – Marchosius Aug 17 '12 at 22:16
