Yesterday I [announced the first Ubuntu Accomplishments](https://archivedblog.jonobacon.com/2012/05/01/first-ubuntu-accomplishments-release/) release. It is wonderful to see so many of you trying the system; many thanks!

As part of the 0.1 release, we have added *David Callé*’s Ubuntu Accomplishments Unity lens to the 0.1 PPA. It looks like this:

The lens neatly integrates into your desktop your trophies and available opportunities. Clicking on an opportunity will show information about how to accomplish it.

## Installing

To install the lens first, add the PPA to your system with:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-accomplishments/releases

Now update your package list:

sudo apt-get update

Ensure you have the full Ubuntu Accomplishments system (including the `accomplishments-lens` package):

sudo apt-get install accomplishments-daemon accomplishments-viewer
ubuntu-community-accomplishments accomplishments-lens

You will need to re-login to see the lens.

Please note: you will need to have the accomplishments back-end process running to use the lens. This is simple: just load *Accomplishments Information* from the dash and this will start the back-end process. You can now view the lens.

As ever, you can report bugs [here](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-accomplishments-system/+filebug).

Thanks, David, for your efforts in creating the lens!
