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!
