Package "compiz-core"

This package belongs to a PPA: Ubuntu-desktop ppa




Name: compiz-core

Description:

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 (1:0.9.7.4-0ubuntu1~ppa1) precise; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release
     - compiz crashed with SIGSEGV in CompositeScreen::compositingActive()
     - Window management - Closing one window sends others to the
       background (LP: #888704)
     - [regression] Invisible resize border is now only 1px wide (LP: #953839)
     - Coverity REVERSE_INULL - CID 10888 (LP: #957572)
     - Unity dash opens and immediately closes if you tap Super+A
       quickly (LP: #960831)
     - Unity 5.8: Flickering and corruption on Unity UI elements (LP: #963093)
     - Unity 5.8: Can't login to Unity since upgrade to 5.8 (LP: #963465)
     - [regression] Unity 5.8+Compiz 0.9.7.2: Pressing Super+Tab or
       Super+W works, but unity does not respond to when Super is
       released. (LP: #963470)
     - Unity 5.8: Login to blank screen (all black or just wallpaper) (LP: #963633)
     - Tests do not build when libgtest-dev is installed but libgtest
       isn't (LP: #964248)
     - Note that this fix is REMOVED for stability reasons:
        Unity/compiz intercepts Super and Alt keypresses from grabbed
        windows like VMs. (806255)
   * debian/patches/ubuntu-config.patch:
     - tweak slightly the shadow border for both active/inactive windows.
   * debian/rules, debian/compiz-gnome.gconf-defaults:
     - move the default for the unity-less default profile from DEFAULT_PLUGINS
       list as it seems compiz tries to load that list, then ccp, then the
       profile list.
     - put the active_plugins list back to the Default profile in gconf then.
   * debian/control:
     - set Standards-Version to latest
   * remove debian/patches/always_replace.patch,
     debian/patches/exit_1_if_composite_cant_init.patch,
     debian/patches/reset_active_plugin_list.patch,
     debian/reset-compiz-gconf, debian/compiz-gnome.install:
     - the 3 bad hacks are now not necessary anymore (LP: #963264)
   * remove as now in upstream tarball:
     - debian/patches/fix_953839.patch
     - debian/patches/revert_lim.patch
     - debian/patches/fix_953089_2.patch
     - debian/patches/fix_960831.patch
