I've now gotten Compiz 0.9.7-bzr to compile on ALL distro's mentioned. :)

Cmake does honour my LDFLAGS, but only if i execute it like so;

LDFLAGS='-lX11 -ldl -lXext' cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr

... this also must be done *before* running cmake, otherwise cmake will not honour the flags... i would assume it uses whatever is cached instead. ~ this must have been my mistake the other day.

However, that being said. This is still a bug that should be fixed.

-lX11 -ldl -lXext should be defined (as LDFLAGS) somewhere in the sources (again not sure where), or compiz will continue to fail on non-debian based systems. (or atleast every distro that i have tested).
