I installed "easymp3gain-qt 0.5.0+svn135-6" from the Ubuntu Software Center and... it does nothing!

I mean: the main program interface is opened, but... when I ask it the expected action (to normalize the volume of some mp3 audio file), the program stops and asks me: "Is mp3gain installed?"

I tried to install mp3gain, but it is only to Windows and it doesn't run with Wine!

So... How can I use this?

I had the same trouble, only with the gtk version. Turns out that in some repos (I tried Lubuntu and Synaptic), only the GUI front-end is available, without the actual subprograms, i.e., mp3gain, vorbisgain and aacgain. Going to the mp3gain site, as you found out, is useless since you'll only find Windows binaries. From another post link, it was apparent the .debs for mp3gain could be found (in various architectures) at the following link:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/mp3gain/

I downloaded from this archive and installed using gdebi and it worked for me.

You have installed only mp3gain frontend. To use it, it is necessary to install mp3gain package. Install it with: 

sudo apt-get install mp3gain

Now run easymp3 again and it must be ok now.
