Dependencies

  • startup-notification
  • libxslt
  • libjpeg-turbo
  • glu
  • cairo
  • libwnck (recommended; It, and it's dependency gtk+3, are required to use GTK window decorations)
  • Marco (recommended; It allows Compiz to use the window decoration that is set for Marco)


It is possible to build this software without libwnck, and it's dependency gtk+3 installed. However, without them gtk-window-decorator will not be built and you will have to install Emerald if you want framed windows under Compiz.

Installation

./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr \
        --with-gtk=3.0
make

As the root user:

make install
