Title:
  build failure; does not include X11 library path in link

Status in Compiz:
  In Progress
Status in compiz package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I have just tried to build compiz-0.9.12.0. I encountered several
  problems, but the first one (which is at least easily worked around)
  is that the correct library paths for certain X11 libraries are not
  used when linking. I tried the most straightforward build possible:

      mkdir build
      cd build
      cmake ..
      make VERBOSE=1 2>&1 | tee build.log

  I have attached the resulting build.log file. As you can see there is
  a link failure since the build tries to link against libraries
  libXrender and libX11, but it does not include the library path (via
  -L switch). On my system these libraries are in /usr/X11R7/lib, and
  this is correctly identified by pkg-config:

      $ pkg-config --libs x11
      -L/usr/X11R7/lib -lX11  

  Obviously this can be worked around be setting
  LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/X11R7/lib before running 'make', but this should not
  be necessary.
