Report of succesful Beryl packages build



Yesterday, I build Beryl (Compiz fork by Quinstorm and others), with the only quirk of installing libxcomposite 0.3.0 from incoming.debian.org. By now, I think libxcomposite is in unstable, so all requirements to build Beryl (and Compiz) are NOW in unstable. My hardware is Dell Inspiron 510m, with i855GM with share memory (yes, it is slow, but works!!!).

When building the packages, there is a small flaw, since there are a self-dependence, so the packages need a small corrections (I build it manually, and after building beryl-core, you have to install it in order to build the rest of packages: beryl, beryl-plugins, beryl-settings, emerald, emerald-theme-manager.

For running Beryl, I followed the instructions on this page: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Beryl. For Beryl source code, check out www.beryl-project.org.

I hope this to help. Greetings,

Jose Manuel Delgado Mendinueta (Mendi)
