Hi! Thanks for the report.

Could you try installing these packages?

sudo apt-get install libxtst-dev libpng++-dev

I believe this should resolve the issue.

How to resolve the nw.gui dependency?

[octalmage]

This app needs to be ran with nw.js, there's a guide here:

https://github.com/nwjs/nw.js/wiki/How-to-run-apps

I'll package the app and upload it when I have time.
