Hi Ryan and Julien,

A patch is available at that link to correct the issue with version 1.1.6.
I have tested the patch and seems to fix it, running a self compiled 1.1.6
+ the published patch.

Xcompmgr has a very long release cycle - is it still possible to put this
in Wheezy? I wouldn't call this bug a showstopper, but pretty much makes
this package unusable in a modern desktop.

Regards,
Pedro
