When library names like libprotobuf.so.XX change you just need to rebuild compiz. It's not a problem with the PKGBUILD. This is normal for AUR packages. Packages in the official repos also get rebuilt when libraries are updated.

Note that you shouldn't symlink new library names to old. This will create problems for you further down the line.

I don't know anything about KDE support in compiz. All I know it did not compile and I removed all KDE related things. It seems that KDE support has been removed also from compiz reloaded...

If kdecompat still works then partial revert can be submitted, but it sounds that it does not work or has some problems... So someone needs to do partial or full revert and update to make it fully working with KDE 5.

@denjack I didn't experience the issues that you did but it's possible I didn't test it for long enough.

@muktupavels I tried running Compiz + kdecompat plugin in KDE Plasma 5 in a VM. Unfortunately, not only did kdecompat not work for me, it actually introduced new problems. I wasn't able to open the KDE main menu with kdecompat enabled, it would keep closing immediately until I turned kdecompat off again. It also didn't add taskbar thumbnails although in fairness I wasn't even able to get taskbar thumbnails with the default kwin either. Enabling/disabling blur effect in kdecompat did nothing and I have no idea what "present windows" is so I can't test that. As you say, someone who actually uses KDE needs to test this but as near as I can tell, kdecompat doesn't work in KDE 5.

@Chazza: I have tried, the result is.... weird. There is KDE compatibility plugin present in CCSM. So far so good. The weirdness is in DockBarX thumbnails behaviour. It is sometimes there, sometimes not. Sometimes empty frame is shown when mouse pointer is above related dock icon, when it moves to the frame, thumbnail blinks for a while. It is funny when more than one instance of the application is run and so there should be multiple thumbnails shown. Multiple frames are shown and if one slides mouse pointer over them the frames randomly show thumbnails randomly are empty and this status is changing as the pointer moves. Not the thumbnail under the pointer is always shown any of the others can be. Hard to describe, if important i can try to catch it on screenshot.

@denjack Ok great. Now try building Compiz 0.9.14 with this patch: https://pastebin.com/raw/16Fm8cbK

It is just a partial revert of the commit that removes kdecompat. I have tried this myself in my VM with dockbarx and can confirm that thumbnail previews in dockbar work with kdecompat enabled and do not work when it is disabled.

@Chazza - Yes that helps, tnx for explaining.

In addition I just want to say how much I appreciate Compiz is still alive. I've been running it standalone for could it be a decade already? Still the best :)

@Chazza, muktupavels: checked it on a machine with freshly updated Arch with xfce where no plasma/kde4libs/kwin packages were installed and it was fully working - I have all thumbnails in DockBarX. I don't know how it was possible but the only i needed was to build 0.9.13 version of compiz (as Chazza advised below - git checkout c1a346ae6e69) and use it. Regardless of building it on system missing kde/plasma/kwin there were KDE compatibility option present in CCSM, once selected it all is working as I would expected. So from my point of view as it is causing no problem during building and works there is no reason changing any code and also no reason to remove KDE compatibility plugin from compiz. It would be appreciated by me to keep the pluggin in as I wouldn't need to keep compiz 0.9.13 forever or search for other solution in order to have thumbnails available.

Someone who use KDE should do the work and test things. If kdecompat works without other parts (actually it could work, as I think it was not disabled with -DBUILD_KDE4=Off) then create partial revert to restore this plugin and test it. If it works, then submit merge request.
