Description Anatoly 2012-10-09 00:55:14 UTC 
x11-plugins/compiz-plugins-main has runtime dependency on libGLU, provided now by virtual/glu.

Only some plug-ins depend on it.  There are no build errors, the package builds and installs just fine.

For example, animation plug-in (/usr/lib64/compiz/libanimation.so) depends on it.  When one tries to activate animation plug-in using ccsm (compiz settings manager) without libGLU available, the option will silently deactivate after some time, and error message can only be seen in console log.

Compiz issues following error messages:
/usr/bin/compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin '/usr/lib64/compiz/libanimation.so' : libGLU.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
/usr/bin/compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'animation'

Reconsider this bug, as you will awake dev on a package that is mask and pending for removal.
So before anyone assign that bug and ring a dev that will have a look at it and remove it from the tree, you can still mark it as invalid.

It is not masked anymore since 30th August, so I think it is valid.
