Feisty git repo?

[brottman]

Is anyone maintaining packages for Compiz git for Feisty? Or is there instructions anywhere for downloading/compiling from git and creating packages?

[RYX]

Compiling from git is as easy as:git clone git://git.freedesktop.org/git/xorg/app/compiz
cd compiz
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --enable-librsvg
make

(You need package "gitweb" to be installed before and maybe also "curl"-package if you still get an error)

I don't know much about packaging. Maybe you should check the Ubuntu-wiki, I think there is a packaging-tutorial for .deb-packages.

:)

As far as I know gandalfn is doing all the packaging for Fiesty, you can check his blog here for more info.

The problem with going git without a repo is I hate losing some plugins etc.

Gandalfn doesn't maintain a git repo for feisty. =(

I might pick up the slack, now that I'm doing a little compiz development.

raof.dyndns.org/falcon should get git versions of Compiz over the weekend.

Just checking - these will be x86 not x86_64, right? =)

They'll be both. I'll be breaking out the i386 pbuilder :)

Awesome.

As a matter of note, Feisty's universe packages for Compiz just broke on me. =(

[RAOF]

Yeah, known issue. Due to the Xorg 7.2 migration.

Either wait it out, or install all of Xorg 7.2 from the test repositories on the ubuntuforums.org thread.

I've been running that.

Actually, it's because they're renaming packages and such on ubuntu's repos, which resulted in a conflict between compiz-gnome and compiz-gtk.

[RAOF]

Cool. You live and learn :)

what is the command to update git??

i.e. git version of "svn update" :D

Anyone got the repos working? They can't load for me. Perhaps they're down and someone should fix them? ;P

I really want to try that new blur plugin, but I don't want to install half of KDe just to build it.

Use --disable-kde in your configure/autogen line.

[RAOF]

OK. I didn't get a chance to build git packages on the weekend, an my intertron will be down for a couple of days while it gets upgraded to ADSL2+.

Maybe next weekend I'll get around to building a git repository :)

[Soaa-]

Ah. I did a 'apt-get build-dep compiz' and it fetched the KDE stuff. Which packages do I need exactly?

[brottman]

Sorry to ask again, but has anyone had a chance to build some compiz git packages for Feisty? I'd really love to see the new stuff :)

Yeh please! It wold be very nice to have daily snapshots of compiz :)

[Treviño]

Wait few hours and I'll port my old beryl-svn repo to an eyecandy repo with compiz-git as I did on past days with beryl.

Git compiz packages for edgy are however: http://3v1n0.tuxfamily.org/dists/edgy/beryl-svn

Bye ;)

Any ETA on this Treviño?Sorry for making you wait so much, but I'm still upgrading to feisty so you'll have to wait a little more, but I hope to put the debs on repo on Sunday (at least)...

However the main problem is that the Compiz-git that I've built here doesn't work at all... Any similar experience for others?

Compiz built from source lacks the wrapper many distros have been adding to make Compiz easier to launch. For example, with Compiz-git I have to set "LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1" else Compiz doesn't find tfp extension on my ATI Radeon 7500 on AiGLX (using free driver).

I can get compiz git working , however there are no window decorations.
I didnt have the time to look in to it tho , so i hope to get a working git version soon.

[karmapolice]

probably you didn't run gtk-window-decorator or kde-window-decorator, did you?

[RacerII]

probably you didn't run gtk-window-decorator or kde-window-decorator, did you?

I dit , but it fails for some reason.

Heres the error i get:
gtk-window-decorator: Could not acquire decoration manager selection on screen 0 display ":0.0"


Beryl works fine tho.

Finally I got compiz-git working also on my machine, however before uploading my debs, please give a look to this thread on the composite community forum to take a decision on CompComm tools:

As usual Treviño, you rock. I just updated. Coolage!

EDITED: And I just downgraded. I lost my Emerald decorator with the update. I am going to wait until (or if) you have ccsm, emrald, etc. up so I can run it with that.

[Treviño]

The repo has been updated, now it has both CompizConfig and Compiz Fusion packages:
