Bug#681263: libdecoration0: Symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/compiz/libdecoration.so: undefined symbol: decor_property_to_quads
Package: libdecoration0
Version: 0.8.4-5.2
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
I install compiz and all its dependencies from unstable, as well as the
settings manager and fusion-icon. All is working fine until I enable window
decoration. I have set the window decorator through the settings manager to the
following command: "gtk-window-decorator --replace", though I tried installing
emerald and I get a similar error to the one below. The only way I got compiz
to work on debian was to build from source (version 0.9.5.0 from
http://releases.compiz.org/). But that seemed a big sluggish and buggy.
What should I do, I can't really use compiz without a window decorator. I did
try to downgrade compiz to the stable version, but it fails to downgrade
compiz-gtk because of a metacity dependency I think.
This is the console output that shows the error:
$ compiz --replace --sm-disable --ignore-desktop-hints ccp
