Package: compiz Version: 0.7.6-7 Followup-For: Bug #496519 I suffered from #496519 I tried to get a backtrace as asked in the bug report. At first, running /usr/bin/compiz.real (with all options and envvar set in /usr/bin/compiz) leads to a full freeze of the machine. Then, I set "ulimit -c unlimited" and start compiz. I got a core file but nothing really interesting in it: (gdb) info threads * 1 process 4189 0x00007f3d816fb630 in ?? () (gdb) bt #0 0x00007f3d816fb630 in ?? () #1 0x00007f3d84454da8 in __cxa_finalize () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x00007f3d823d6da6 in ?? () from /usr/lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #3 0x0000000000c9fcf8 in ?? () #4 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
So, I want to report this useless backtrace and see that the 'compiz' package itself was not installed. So I installed it with its suggestion: 'compizconfig-settings-manager'. To be sure, I retried, and this time it was working! I checked that 'compiz' was really only a metapackage (removing it does not change anything). But removing libcompizconfig0 makes /usr/bin/compiz segfault again. And reinstalling it makes it working. So, I think you are missing a dependency on libcompizconfig0 somewhere (compiz-core ?, compiz-plugins ?)
