Compiz compositing manager update 0.9.14.2

Almost three years after the publication of the last update, the release of the Compiz 0.9.14.2 compositing manager has been released, using OpenGL for graphics output (windows are processed as textures using GLX_EXT_texture_from_pixmap) and providing a flexible system of plugins for implementing effects and extending functionality.

Among the most noticeable changes in the new version is the implementation of support for the _GTK_WORKAREAS_D{number} and _GNOME_WM_STRUT_AREA properties, which allow for better workspaces in multi-monitor configurations. Previously, these properties have been added to the GTK library, the Mutter window manager, and the Metacity compositing manager.

In addition, Compiz 0.9.14.2 improves build support in new versions of GCC, fixes problems with blur and opengl plugins on systems with OpenGL ES, stops changing paths for pkg-config, and adds support for Unity (Jumbo) build mode in CMake.
