You guys, made me went on this build frenzy to get compiz working. I could not be more happy =]
Running it on XFCE. Form me fusion-icon only work with "export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=true fusion-icon". Emerald is freezing on every theme change, but its not a big deal. I like to configure the panel and look for the list of plugins loaded and pass it to compiz by some simple bash script and ignoring ccp. Tanks for the tips, as some packages only was built with src2pkg (thanks gnashley).

I am trying to compile compiz using src2pkg. I am a src2pkg newbie. I am having trouble with the compz compile

This may be because of some missing libraries, or you may

Any ideas?

arubin,

try entering the source folder and running your configure command directly from there, without src2pkg.

Then, when it quits due to error, you should more easily be able to see what the configure script was looking for, and what it did not find. It's looking for something that is either not installed on your machine, or that is in a location where the configure script cannot find it.

Plus, if you have trouble deciphering the output from ./configure, post it for us and we maybe can help you figure out what's going on.

src2pkg with the -R (-VV will do it for sure) option should show what configure wanted without untarring and running ./configure directly, although it's about the same amount of work either way.

Try.

I was able to build the core compiz with the attached SBo. The script was renamed to txt and the executable bit is disabled.

It was built for 64 bit and used this flags:

The error was

arubin · 09-20-2009, 03:13 PM

Got a bit further it configured but the make failed with

arubin · 09-20-2009, 03:25 PM

Ok I have compiled it using BrZ's slackbuild.

arubin · 09-20-2009, 03:40 PM

Are the plugins cmake packages also needed?

arubin · 09-20-2009, 04:02 PM

I think it is installed but I am getting this error
