Hi Christian and thanks for the help you provided. I wonder how i did not thought to perform a chmod on /var/lib/GNUnet, it indeed solved this issue directly.
I can now run gnunetd and gnunet-gtk without errors but i'm still not able to get results in any search including a search with the word "GPL" which is supposed to provide results. Anyway i will contact the folks on #gnunet as you advised i think it will be easier to solve my issue using IRC and i'm already connected to freenode so ... I will keep you up to date about the gnunet ubuntu documentation, once i will have a first version i will post the link on the mailing list.
