[desktop-discuss] 3D Desktop : Compiz fusion for Solaris x86

[Erwann Chenede]

Hi Doug,


It might be late for you but still useful for others...

I've put the precompiled emerald packages here :
   
http://www.gnome.org/~erwannc/compiz/emerald-solaris-12-09-07.tar.bz2

See my comment inline for your other questions/problems.

    Thanks,

          Erwann

yes, I forgot the added BuildRequires: SFEcompiz-devel in the spec-file. 
This is fixed now in SFE.

No it doesn't, as the bundle was starting to get big, I removed all the 
-devel pkgs...

libXcomposite might be missing because you removed SFEcompiz and as this 
pkg is also shipping libXcomposite. It might have removed it altogether.
this lib was added because it wasn't shipped in previous solaris builds. 
I'll remove these dependencies for the next release.
