[Bug 1168636] [NEW] compiz resets active plugin list on every login

 

Public bug reported:

I'm on Ubuntu Raring.  To see the problem:

1. Start CompizConfig Settings Manager and enable a new plugin, e.g. the JPEG image loading plugin.
2. The plugin will be loaded in compiz (as you can see in .xsession-errors).
3. Log out and log back in.
4. The plugin you enabled will not be loaded any more.

When you enable the plugin in CompizConfig it gets added to
~/.config/compiz-1/compizconfig/unity.ini.  It appears that on every
login this file gets overwritten with a default set of plugins, so the
extra plugin is lost.
