In this bug (included as cc), you have a mixture of 0.8.x versions of
compiz with the 0.9.x versions from experimental. please try (assuming
you still have experimental in your sources.list) doing an apt-get -t
experimental install compiz, and see if you're still having problems
after that.

To my knowledge emerald doesn't work with 0.9.x, though I haven't tried.
Your best chance would be to install all of the compiz development
related packages (libdecoration0-dev, compiz-dev, etc), and then grab
the emerald sources from git.compiz.org.
