The following script does the trick for me. If compiz 0.9 is installed, it uses "python2" for build() and package(). Otherwise, use "python" instead.
I'm not familiar with all functions of PKGBUILD, so there can be better way to do it.
------
build() {
COMPIZ_INFO=$(pacman -Q compiz)
COMPIZ_NAME_VERSION=${COMPIZ_INFO:0:10}
if [ "$COMPIZ_NAME_VERSION" == "compiz 0.9" ]; then
PYTHON="python2"
else
PYTHON="python"
fi

cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
$PYTHON setup.py build
}

package() {
COMPIZ_INFO=$(pacman -Q compiz)
COMPIZ_NAME_VERSION=${COMPIZ_INFO:0:10}
if [ "$COMPIZ_NAME_VERSION" == "compiz 0.9" ]; then
PYTHON="python2"
else
PYTHON="python"
fi

cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
$PYTHON setup.py install --root="$pkgdir" --optimize=1
}
------

@ShadowKyogre: working fine with 0.9 changing PKGBUILD as per instructions!
Is there any possibility to PKGBUILD check what version of compiz is installed and build automatically for 0.8 or 0.9?
TIA

@imran27: I left some comments on the PKGBUILD mentioning what to do in the case of Compiz 0.9.x.

@ShadowKyogre
Problem still persists.

Using python2 setup.py build instead python solves the problem

@microdou, imran27: I've updated the PKGBUILD to call the setup.py file directly. It works for both Compiz 0.9.x and Compiz 0.8.x since all the Makefile is doing is calling the setup.py file.

I'll do this for the -git PKGBUILD too.

@ShadowKyogre: I got the same problem as @imran27 with Compiz 0.9 and Fusion-icon 0.2.3.

Following modification to PKGBUILD solved my problem. (I don't know if it will work with Compiz 0.8)
Change the prepare() and package() portions to:

build() {
cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
python2 setup.py build
}

package() {
cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
python2 setup.py install --root="$pkgdir" --optimize=1
}

@imran27: Had a look at the Compiz 0.9 packages in the AUR. It looks like that they use python2, while the Compiz 0.8 packages use python3 primarily.

How would you suggest fixing this?

With compiz 0.9.13.1-1, when I launch fusion-icon, I get this error
Traceback (most recent call last):

@balwierz: Install libappindicator-gtk3 also as mentioned in the optional depedendencies. There's currently no way to group optional depdendencies atm into what they're needed for except for description.

@ShadowKyogre: Thank you! The qt interface works great now.

However, I still have problems (of a different kind) with the gtk interface. It fails in the line: gi.require_version('AppIndicator3', '0.1')
in /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/FusionIcon/interface_gtk/main.py

I do have PyGObject installed:
extra/python2-gobject2 2.28.6-12 [installed]

But cannot find an AUR package for python bindings of AppIndicator (there is Perl one only). Any suggestions?
