0.9.2 is out and almost stable. :) (I was working with the ebuild from desktop-effects-overlay). It would be nice, to see the package also in the main portage tree.

Thanks in advance!

The ebuilds for compiz-0.9.2 are already in the overlay. Even though I haven't hit many issues, other members of the team have hit continuous segmentation faults.
It may or not be related to their use of GNOME, while I use KDE.

So we won't move this release into the tree.

Thanks for the response.

Alright, so we've just to wait, until it's going to hit the MAIN-tree? :)

Mhhh... I have no experience with gnome. I'm using KDE 4.6 (live), and compiz 0.9.2 works like a charm.

I've just tested Compiz 0.9.2 from desktop-effects overlay. In summary: it still does not work.

I don't use KDE. I don't use Gnome. I just run Compiz as window manager, Emerald as window decorator and nothing else.

However, there is no 0.9.2 version of Emerald, and current 0.8.4-r2 version fails to compile against 0.9.2 compiz.

And, finally, when I tried running compiz 0.9.2, it segfault soon after started. Sorry, I didn't have time to test it and generate a backtrace, so I went back to 0.8.x Compiz.

Actually, there is a patch that makes it compile. Look here:

and here:

I think this bug can be closed since new development release (0.9.4) is released and a bug for this bump is already opened https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=357831
