== Building Unity from Source ==

You'll need a fully updated Natty system, with the latest ''compiz'' and ''bamfdaemon'' packages installed.

You'll then need to do do this:

{{{
sudo apt-get install libglib2.0-dev libgdk-pixbuf2.0-dev libcairo2-dev libpng12-dev libglew1.5-dev libglewmx1.5-dev libxxf86vm-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libsigc++-2.0-dev libpango1.0-dev doxygen cmake build-essential debhelper pkg-config valac intltool libgee-dev libunique-dev libclutter-1.0-dev libclutter-gtk-0.10-dev libclutk-dev libbamf-dev gsettings-desktop-schemas-dev libgconf2-dev libglib2.0-dev libdbusmenu-glib-dev libgnome-desktop-dev libgtk2.0-dev libpango1.0-dev libgnomeui-dev libdee-dev libindicator-dev libunity-misc-dev libutouch-grail-dev libxcb-icccm1-dev compizconfig-settings-manager compiz-dev libboost-dev libboost-serialization-dev libmetacityprivate-dev }}}

to get all the dependencies.

You'll need to build compiz manually as well - but first one library that Unity depends on but isn't yet packaged in Natty called Nux:

{{{
bzr branch lp:nux
cd nux
./autogen.sh --disable-documentation --prefix=/opt/unity
make
sudo make install
}}}

and then Compiz with the glib mainloop integration patch (will go into core at some point)

core:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/users/dbo/compiz-with-glib-mainloop
cd compiz-with-glib-mainloop
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/unity
make
sudo make findcompiz_install
sudo make install
}}}

exporting paths:

{{{
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/unity/lib/pkgconfig:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/unity/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
export LD_RUN_PATH=/opt/unity/lib:${LD_RUN_PATH}
}}}

libcompizconfig:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/compiz/compizconfig/libcompizconfig
cd libcompizconfig
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/unity
make
sudo make install
}}}

compizconfig-python:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/compiz/compizconfig/compizconfig-python
cd compizconfig-python
python setup.py install --prefix=/opt/unity
}}}

ccsm:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/compiz/compizconfig/ccsm
cd ccsm
python setup.py install --prefix=/opt/unity
}}}

plugins-main:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/compiz/plugins-main
cd plugins-main
git submodule init
git pull origin master
git submodule update
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/unity
make
sudo make install
}}}

plugins-extra:

{{{
git clone git://git.compiz.org/compiz/plugins-extra
cd plugins-extra
git submodule init
git pull origin master
git submodule update
mkdir build
cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/unity
make
sudo make install
}}}

and then Unity:

{{{
bzr branch lp:unity
cd unity
mkdir build; cd build
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DCOMPIZ_PLUGIN_INSTALL_TYPE=package -CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/unity
make
sudo make install
}}}

unsetting paths:

{{{
unset PKG_CONFIG_PATH
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
unset LD_RUN_PATH
}}}

add this to your /home/$USER/.bashrc

{{{
function compiz-unity-setup-env
{
    export PATH=/opt/unity/bin:${PATH}
    export PYTHONPATH=/opt/unity/lib/python2.6/site-packages
}
}}}

and finally, once that's installed, you can log out and log in and again and then run compiz-unity-setup-env and then restart Compiz (compiz --replace ccp) and then use CompizConfig Settings Manager (ccsm) to search for and enable the Unity plugin!

== Maverick from source ==

Exactly the same as above in Natty, but you'll first need Compiz 0.9.2 patched with glib support. There aren't any packages yet but there is a build script for it in the unity source under the "tools/" directory. After installing that, make sure to update you PKG_CONFIG_PATH and you can then follow the same instructions as Natty.		 #REDIRECT http://askubuntu.com/questions/28470/how-do-i-build-unity-from-source/28472
