compiz 0.7.8 is not in the tree. The latest version available is still 0.6.2-r1:

http://packages.gentoo.org/package/x11-wm/compiz

Trying to do an update today:

# emerge -upD system world

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!

emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy "~x11-wm/compiz-0.7.8".
(dependency required by "x11-libs/libcompizconfig-0.7.8" [ebuild])

Can't install it unless I grab at least libX11 and compiz ebuilds from the desktop effects overlay.

Why would you unmask the rest of compiz-fusion without the most critical part being in the tree?

Same problem here, ~x11-wm/compiz-0.7.8 is needed by x11-wm/compiz-fusion-0.7.8 but is not in the tree.

Thank you for your work getting compiz to the tree anyway :)

I'm very sorry but I failed to notice that the compiz commit script failed to commit compiz and the patches for a few of the ebuilds. It should all be fixed now.
