What's your version of qt and what qt-packages do you have installed? (To find this out: eix -Ic qt-*)

[Comment 3 Rafał Mużyło 2010-02-11 14:54:21 UTC]

Frankly, I suspect '--keep-going' may be the cause,
more exactly, a revdep-rebuild may be in order.

[Comment 4 Kobboi 2010-02-14 20:53:46 UTC]

Same problem here. Most recent qt-* stuff, being 4.6.1.

[Comment 5 Ambroz Bizjak 2010-02-18 12:26:00 UTC]

The error is because compiz does not support KDE 4.4. This upstream commit adds KDE 4.4 support:
http://gitweb.compiz.org/?p=compiz/core;a=commit;h=04c6a44893a00088c63acd3ba327022f8aa551cc
Works here (compiles and kde4-window-decorator runs).
