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.

Hiya. Nope, never seen that before. Or not that I remember anyway. Yes, you've raised this in the right place. Build issues should be reported to the package maintainer. I'm very, very busy at the moment unfortunately but I will try and fix this tomorrow if I have time, otherwise it might have to wait until the weekend.

/usr/src/compiz-0.9.13.1/build$ sudo cmake ..

... and further toward the bottom of the log:

As this is my first time attempting to compile Compiz, I am uncertain as to whether I am bringing this issue to the correct folks. @Chazza - since you are the package maintainer, have you encountered this failure in the past?

(edited to clean up formatting a bit.)

@s_root I've rebuilt compiz and I cannot reproduce that error. Please verify that your system is up to date and also try building the package manually instead of using an AUR helper as I've seen those cause problems for people once or twice.

I hadn't recompiled. I just did and compiz is now working again with protobuf-3.4.1-1. Sorry for false alert and thanks for the tip about checking AUR dependencies.

Did you try recompiling compiz? Usually when upgrading libraries you should recompile dependent AUR packages, so the new libraries get linked again.

compiz 0.9.13.1-3 failed to start with this error after I updated packages on my laptop: ImportError: libprotobuf.so.13: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I was able to fix it by downgrading from protobuf-3.4.1-1 to protobuf-3.3.2-1 pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/protobuf-3.3.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz The newer version of protobuf includes libprotobuf.so.14. Can Compiz be updated to work with the newer version?

Thanks Techman35 :) I've tested the patch you linked to and can confirm it addresses the issue so I've added it. As for the other issues, I promise I will look into them as soon as I am able but I am rather busy at present. In any case, upstream should be made aware of these issues if there aren't already existing bug reports.

@Chanzza i can tell you more if you want :) in screenshot plugin the launch_app is not working, id fix it patching the source code with this screenshotfix.patch that i found on launchpad forum as far as i remember this is the patch link: https://pastebin.com/raw/KWm8a16D and now it works Another plugin is the blur plugin, is not working and if i enable it and select Blur Filter Gaussian compiz crash, and if i select other Filter option nothing happens theres a feature i would like to have in this version of compiz, and is to be able to use dockbarx compiz scale option, it works with version 0.8

@ector thanks, but wrt protobuf, please do NOT symlink new library names to old. This will create a mess. Instead, rebuild compiz. I'll bump the pkgrel in just a moment. @Techman35 thanks for the info. I wasn't aware there was an issue there as I don't use the widget layer. I'll look into this as soon as I can.
