Easy GIt on Gutsy

[searayman]

I have removed all traces of compiz from my gutsy install, I know want to install the latest version of Compiz Fusion.

Is there a package i can get or a repo which will allow me to use the latest plugins etc..

If so how can i do this?

The problem with gutsy is that it doesn't have xcb support, so being able to use git master (latest) is a bit of a hassle involving setting up xcb...

Though you can use the 0.6.0 branch which doesn't have this dependency...

this script here can help you with that http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=5019

unfortunately though, only the latest plugins with 0.6.0 ports will be able to be installed.....

[some-guy]

actually my script only installs the 0.6.0 release ;)

[delfick]

oops my bad....

there doesn't seem to be anything...

unless you follow how to get 0.6.0 branch from this guide http://forum.compiz-fusion.org/showthread.php?t=1985
