Changelog

compiz (1:0.9.7.8+bzr3121-0ubuntu1) precise-proposed; urgency=low

  * New upstream stable branch snapshot.
    - Includes all the previous cherry-picked fixes
    - Fix crash when imgsvg is loaded, due to missing symbol
      (decor_apply_gravity from libdecoration). (LP: #956986)
    - Fix multiple window placement bugs (LP: #974242) (LP: #976032)
    - Fix window handle leak causing gradual degradation in desktop
      performance (LP: #1050610)
    - Some decoration pixmaps get leaked on window resize, due to race
      conditions between gtk-window-decorator and the decor plugin.
      (LP: #1057263)
    - Avoid a NULL dereference and give a useful error message instead.
      (LP: #944653)
    - Fix leakage of destroyed_pixmaps_table, containing pointers to freed
      decor_t's which could result in a freed GHashTable being passed into
      g_hash_table_remove and causing a crash. (LP: #1060171)
  * debian/patches/compiz-package-gles2.patch:
    - Drop the NEWS file, update decor.cpp part to build with new upstream
      code.
  * debian/patches/revert_fix_933776_955035.patch:
    - Cherry-pick the revert from upstream since the bug fix is not
      suitable for SRU as is
  * debian/patches/revert_fix_994841.patch:
    - Cherry-pick also this revert as non-SRU material, not relevant
      to users
  * debian/libdecoration0.symbols:
    - Update with latest symbols

compiz: OpenGL window and compositing manager

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.
 .
 This metapackage provides the components necessary for running compiz. It
 provides the compiz core, a set of standard plugins, a window decorator using
 the Gtk toolkit and the files necessary to integrate compiz with the GNOME
 desktop environment.

compiz-core: OpenGL window and compositing manager

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.
 .
 Compiz combines together a window manager and a composite manager using
 OpenGL for rendering. A "window manager" allows the manipulation of the
 multiple applications and dialog windows that are presented on the screen. A
 "composite manager" allows windows and other graphics to be combined together
 to create composite images. Compiz achieves its stunning effects by doing
 both of these functions.

compiz-dev: OpenGL window and compositing manager - development files

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.
 .
 This package contains the headers and libraries needed to compile compiz
 plugins.

compiz-gnome: OpenGL window and compositing manager - GNOME window decorator

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.
 .
 This package contains files needed to integrate compiz with the GNOME desktop

compiz-kde: OpenGL window and compositing manager - KDE window decorator

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.
 .
 This package contains a window decorator that uses KDE to provide a look and
 feel similar to that of the default KDE window manager.
 .
 NOTE: this package is empty for now. It needs some upstream maintenance to
 upgrade to a newer API. It will surely get removed soon if no enhancement
 is available.

compiz-plugins: OpenGL window and compositing manager - plugins

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.

compiz-plugins-default: OpenGL window and compositing manager - default plugins

 Compiz brings to life a variety of visual effects that make the Linux desktop
 easier to use, more powerful and intuitive, and more accessible for users
 with special needs.

 This package contains the default compiz plugins we activate in ubuntu coming
 with core compiz.
