Binary package hint: compiz

I was chatting in Skype 2.1 BETA and suddenly Screenlets crashed. I cannot specify any more detail because no related or referenced actions were taken before this crash occured.

The error was about fourth in a row. The first error was Screenlets related. Then it was specific Screenlet crash. Then it was about some unclear module/lib crash.

You may trace the errors by date - all uploaded today and previsously reported by me, too.
