New Compiz 0.6.2 and Compiz Fusion 0.6.0 packages
Posted:

G'day,
I've just finished porting Compiz 0.6.2 and Compiz Fusion 0.6.0 to
Solaris and the updated package recipes are in spec-files-extra.
A tarball of SVR4 packages is available at:
http://trisk.acm.jhu.edu/compiz/compiz-packages-0.6.2-s11-i386.tar.bz2
You will have to uninstall any existing packages first
To install, type:
bzcat compiz-packages-0.6.2-s11-i386.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
cd compiz-packages-0.6.2-s11-i386
for file in *.pkg; do pkgadd -d $file all; done
As a note, this will not automatically create an icon on your desktop
like the previous version; instead, use fusion-icon
(All Applications->System Tools->Compiz Fusion Icon) to launch Compiz.
If you use JDS and want Compiz to be the default window manager:
echo 'WINDOW_MANAGER=start-compiz; export WINDOW_MANAGER' >> ~/.gnomerc
Emerald is currently not included.
The update involved a lot more work than I expected (all of the
supplemental code supplied in patches has been replaced - for
entertainment, look at the previous asprintf() implementation).
Erwann, want to make a new installer for this?
-Albert

Just a friendly warning: The GTK window decorator requires Gnome 2.20,
or rather its libs.

The SFE Emerald 0.5.2 packages should be compatible with this release

In that case, I'll update the patches to Emerald since they have
some problematic code as well.

It wasn't actually as bad I remembered, but I prefer to have changes that
can be easily merged upstream.
Checks for missing functions should be used instead of #fdef SOLARIS so
that other platforms can benefit.
My understanding is that they're still investigating making parts of
Compiz Fusion MIT licenced like the core, so support code from GPL
libraries should be avoided.
