I don't know, I'm not a packager, but you can easily check and report
back to this list.

One other solution would also be to make a virtual package...

Not sure, you can also ask on compiz mailing lists for more details, I
only use 4 desktop and that is plenty for me ;)

I had no issues of which you talk about so if you have some experience
with this please feel free to share your experience and also for
others on fedora wiki. It is easy to get access to write to it. if you

Cheers.
