Description Dyweni 2010-04-05 18:57:31 UTC

With Compiz and Gitk both running, doing an alt-tab or activating Scale addon causes compiz to segfault.

This has been patched upstream with this commit to the 0.8 branch.
http://git.compiz.org/compiz/core/commit/?h=compiz-0.8&id=1bed3dbcea6473f84745ec7a1f936c4f5d3b3a01

Could someone build an updated ebuild that contains this patch?

When can we expect this to be in portage?

The reporter here has not reported a specific version. The original report is over a year old and in the report notes it is fixed in git. there have been a couple of upstream stable branches released since the report.

This should be closed IMO

This is fixed in new compiz versions that are in tree now. Closing.
