Introduction to Metacity

The Metacity package contains a window manager. This is useful for organizing and displaying windows.

Dependencies

Required

• Gtk2
• XML::Parser

Optional

• startup-notification
• GConf
• intltool
• libXcomposite (comes with Xorg >= 6.9)

Quoted directly from the configure script, "Not building compositing manager by default now, must enable explicitly to get it. And it doesn't work, so don't bother unless you want to hack on it..."
