Description Robin Bankhead 2007-05-05 21:25:49 UTC
Now that x11-wm/compiz-0.5.0 is in portage, we could use the new compiz-extra to go with it. =compiz-extra-0.3.6.0 does not compile against compiz-0.5.0.

I tried version-bumping the ebuild, but the distribution package format has changed (no longer contains autoconf/automake files for all-in-one install).

Reproducible: Always

Can you point me to a download location?

Sure. From http://forum.compiz.org/viewtopic.php?t=726

Any word on this ebuild? compiz-0.3.x was removed from portage so there is no longer any way to emerge both compiz and compiz-extra without overlay or manually from source.
Comment 4 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2007-10-23 23:31:38 UTC
compiz-extra is replaced by the various parts of compiz-fusion. -extra will automatically update to compiz-fusion-plugins-main.
Comment 5 Robin Bankhead 2007-10-24 09:53:36 UTC
And are we any closer than we were four months ago vis-a-vis seeing any of compiz-fusion in the tree?  Maybe it's just me, but it seems a bit pointless releasing newer versions of compiz into tree if they remain unusable without -extra.

(Note: or is it that more of the plugins from -extra have now been merged into the main compiz distribution? I'm outta touch...)
Comment 6 Hanno Böck gentoo-dev 2007-10-24 11:03:55 UTC
Haven't you read my message? I submitted the various parts of compiz fusion to the portage-tree yesterday. As from what I know, the cf-plugin-packages contain everything that was once part of -extra and -extra is unmaintained.

Sorry, Hanno.  My last sync was overnight and I saw nothing new there -- should have re-checked I guess :( Thanks for your work, looking forward to trying it out!
