You can grab the Zenity script from compiz-manjaro that provides a friendly way to change Metacity theme, if you like. https://github.com/manjaro/packages-community/blob/master/compiz-manjaro/compiz-gtk-decorator-theme-selector Though i admit, it's handling of themes with spaces in their name is a little flaky (which is due to inconsistencies within Metacity theme handling).

@Chazza: Thanks, I've followed your advice and disabled gnome-compat plugin in favor of the MATE equivalent (I'm running MATE here so I probably should have done that anyway) and installed the Ceti-2 theme from the AUR. It seems to be working fine now.

@ckoresko I know there are a couple of plugins which, used in combination with the GSettings backend, case Compiz to crash - namely the gnome-compat plugin. Perhaps that was your problem. Regarding the gtk-window-decorator theme, it's not necessary to be using the GSettings backend in order to change the theme. The backends option only specifies how Compiz store its own configuration. Compiz will read the Metacity gsettings keys no matter what backend is being used. I will edit the Wiki to make this clear.

I just tried switching from flat-file to gsettings (in ccsm ->Preferences) and it caused compiz to crash. Attempting to restart from the commandline resulted in an error like, no key 'terminal' in org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.media-keys or something close to that. Apparently compiz expects that key to be present, but it's not (on my system at least). I understand that it's necessary to edit a schema file and run glib-compile-schemas to add a key. I switched back to flatfile configuration for compiz by manually editing ~/.config/compiz-1/compizconfig/config, and that got compiz working again. The reason I was trying to use gsettings is that according to the Arch wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Compiz_Configuration#GTK_Window_Decorator that should make it possible to select a metacity theme for the decorator by selecting it in gsettings under org.gnome.metacity theme theme-name I don't know how to change decorator themes any other way, except by switching to Emerald, which I've found to be rather unstable.

@hazard I primarily maintain the Compiz 0.9 related stuff (as that's what I actually use on a daily basis) but I would be fine with taking over ccsm 0.8 if you don't wish to continue maintaining it.

hazard commented on 2015-07-08 07:42 (UTC)

@Chazza you seem to be maintaining the rest of the compiz packages, would you like to takeover ccsm as well?

<deleted-account> commented on 2015-06-18 07:38 (UTC)

That's ok. Glad you got it working. :)

@Chazza Thank you so much! You are the Boss! ;-)

Oh yeah, you can't apply the patches to the same srcdir twice. You need a clean srcdir. run makepkg -Ci instead. The -C option will delete the previous srcdir so you're working from a fresh source.
