Bug Description
Unresolved symbols in plugins cause compiz to exit instantly (appears to crash);
./bin/compiz: symbol lookup error: lib/compiz/
Obviously, compiz should either;
(a) Gracefully refuse to load plugins that have unresolvable symbols;
(b) Treat unresolved symbols as errors at build time;
(c) All of the above.
I have tried (b) before but it seems to require non-trivial work to be done on various plugins. Fixing (a) however appears trivial.
