Package: compiz-plugins
Severity: wishlist

I'd like to give compiz a try on my systems, but there is one thing that
is holding me back.
My systems are all KDE based. Sorry, can't help it, I just prefer KDE
over Gnome (by a huge margin).

The problem is that IIUC all the cool stuff is in compiz-plugins and
that without compiz-plugins it is really not worth running compiz.
But for some reason compiz-plugins depends on _gconf2_ and I really,
really do not want such core Gnome stuff installed on my KDE system.
A few libs is fine of course. I also have the Gimp installed.
But I really do not need the Gnome configuration management nonsense.
It is 7.5 MB that I have absolutely no use for.

If there is any way the packaging could be changed so that
compiz-plugings becomes installable without installing gconf2, that
would be very much appreciated, by a lot of users of other desktop
environments!

Thanks for considering,
Frans Pop

hi,

as of the above mentioned version it should be impossible to have the whole 
compiz/compiz-fusion suite installed without gconf.  try installing compiz 
and compizconfig-backend-kconf for starters, as well as the kde decorator and 
any fusion plugins and other extra bells and whistles you want.
