Using package moves like this causes for example the following problem.
If you now depend on just x11-libs/libcompizconfig you really can't be
sure that the user has libcompizconfig files on his system because it's
enough that the files from beryl-settings are there. As such building
stuff will fail. Stuff does work as long as
>=x11-libs/libcompizconfig-0.6. for example is used everywhere.

Regards,
Petteri
