I have only one building problem with libvisual-plugins, because I
haven't installed libvisual on an usual place, but instead on
/home/duilio/share. For this reason compilation in
plugins/actor/G-Force/Common/GeneralTools/ fails. To fix that only needs
to define 

AM_CXXFLAGS = @LIBVISUAL_CFLAGS@

for to make the right includes.
There is the same problem in plugins/actor/dancingparticles/, but here
the point is that we must define:

AM_CXXFLAGS = @LIBVISUAL_CFLAGS@

instead of the current

AM_CFLAGS = @LIBVISUAL_CFLAGS@

because we are compiling C++ sources. I send attached a patch for these
two things.

All the plugins works well for me except for the Dancing Particles,
which gives the following error (when switching from corona):

libvisual INFO: XMMS plugin: negotiating plugin libvisual Dancing
Particles plugin
xmms: relocation error:
/home/duilio/share/lib/libvisual/actor/actor_dancingparticles.so:
undefined symbol: _Z11about_errorPcz

I have compiled everything without extra options to configure: no extra
optimization and no debugging.


Bye,
Duilio.
