crypt manager just won't work

Asked by veero

hello everyone.
so, on my ububtu 10.04 i tried very hard since i don't understand a heck of all codes and stuff.
anyways, with my poor experience and good will i managed to proceed all these steps during the installation of crypt manager

sudo addgroup your-login fuse

sudo apt-get install encfs python2.4-dev python-nautilus subversion
(here i changed 2.4 to version on my pc)

svn checkout http://crypt-manager.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ crypt-manager

cd crypt-manager

cd crypt-manager

sudo ./make-debian.sh

cd conceal-0.0.5/conceal-gtk

sudo python setup.py install

so now it appears on my system-administration, but it doesn't start.
since i couldn't figure out in an our how to install and make work a 7mb software, i wonder if someone could help since it looks like i'm so close to the end.
i really don't know what i did wrong.
please,i need understandable language. do not take anything for granted or obvious(for me it's not).
thanks very much!

In the crypt-manager directory, type "chmod +x install.sh" without quotes then rerun the last command. This changes the permissions on the script to make it executable"

where is the crype-manager directory? i don't know where things are installed
where do i type that? what does "without rerun" means?
what last command are you referring to?

i found a solution. here's the proper way to install it

sudo addgroup your-login fuse
(your login means your user in the pc)

sudo apt-get install encfs python2.6-dev python-nautilus subversion
(check your current version)

svn checkout http://crypt-manager.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ crypt-manager

cd crypt-manager

sudo ./make-debian.sh

cd conceal-0.0.5/conceal

sudo python setup.py install

cd conceal-0.0.5/conceal-gtk
(if it says there's no directory or file, copy anyway this)

sudo python setup.py install

Can you help with this problem?
