Dear Debian folks,
Is compiz no longer usable in Jessie - no deb package and no longer
maintained?
This project is dead as far as upstream concerned for, like, two years
- [1]. And for the most of us compiz died back in 2008 once upstream
decided to rewrite the thing in C++ (and failed).
Is there anything that would replace it or is going end up like project
looking glass?
Well, it depends on the features you want from the replacement.
Gnome-shell's mutter is probably the most close to compiz's features if
you can stomach a modern GNOME.
