[SOLVED] build from sources problems

[raozuzu]

hi to everyone :D ,

I've found this nice forum about compiz, and I decided to post here my problems with it.
At first, exuse me for my bad english...

Since my favourite distribution has switched from compiz to beryl, I became really sad. So I tried to build a mine package of compiz, but I recieved many errors in console after the "make" command. Errors like these:

then mv -f ".deps/gtk-window-decorator.Tpo" ".deps/gtk-window-decorator.Po"; else rm -f ".deps/gtk-window-decorator.Tpo"; exit 1; fi
gtk-window-decorator.c: In function 'meta_get_window_region':
gtk-window-decorator.c:1849: error: 'MetaFrameGeometry' has no member named 'top_left_corner_rounded'
gtk-window-decorator.c:1875: error: 'MetaFrameGeometry' has no member named 'top_right_corner_rounded'
gtk-window-decorator.c:1904: error: 'MetaFrameGeometry' has no member named 'bottom_left_corner_rounded'
gtk-window-decorator.c:1930: error: 'MetaFrameGeometry' has no member named 'bottom_right_corner_rounded'
make[3]: *** [gtk-window-decorator.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/rao/Desktop/compiz-0.2.2/gtk/window-decorator'
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/rao/Desktop/compiz-0.2.2/gtk'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rao/Desktop/compiz-0.2.2'
make: *** [all] Error 2


Can anyone help me?
I have Frugalware -current distro, I also have all the necessary dependencies library installed, and my Gnome is 2.17 version. Do you need other information?

PS: I also tried to build all version of compiz avaible trought the freedesktop site.

Try compiling using configure --without-metacity, if it works using this then you will need to update Metacity (or libmetacity - I am not sure).

[lowfi]

your metacity theme.h is too new, but this is fixed in the latest GIT update.

You can also use the releases from go-compiz.org ...

mikedee: it doesn't works with --without-metacity. I recieve the same error.

lowfi: can you re-explain in other words your last post? I didn't understand very well :oops:

I've tried these version of compiz:

- cvs
- 0.3.2
- 0.2.2

[lowfi]

you have to download the source again, with ...

git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/app/compiz

and then try again. this bug was fixed only a few hours ago so maybe your source is to old.

Great! Now the make process works perfectly! :D

Thank you a lot. :wink:

PS: Now can I make a package for my distro that can appear on the go-compiz site? So I can contribute to this project... :)
