Compton Composite on OpenBSD Howto - cyberpunkz - 05-03-2014

Hey I got compton working on OpenBSD 5.5

make sure you install gcc 4.8 from pkg_add

vi Makefile , remove the line -lrt (as OpenBSD has librt in libc)

sudo gmake CC=egcc
sudo gmake CC=egcc install

good to go!

Results - Screenshot to show it working
