Thanks.

I tried on my other up to date Trusty box last night and I can't
reproduce the issue anymore (with the patch in), so a bit more info:

The issues found:

1) updateSetting  (in gsettings/src/gsettings.c) always uses readOption
(even when integration is turned on). This function should use
readIntegratedOption when integration is turned on (as readSetting
does).

2) ccsGSettingsIntegratedSettingWriteValue (in
ccs_gnome_integration_gsettings_integrated_setting.c) function is called
when writing a new value to gsettings backend. In this function,
newVariant is set only when the old a new values differ but at the end
of the function, the key is reset when newVariant is NULL.

Testing:

The two packages you want to update are (at least) libcompizconfig0 and
compiz-gnome.

If you want to test the patch, please make sure to restart compiz (and
ccsm if currently running) after installing the new packages. Maybe
better just to reboot the box after install when testing (just to be
sure the new libraries are used). If your settings are reset at this
stage, set the settings as you like and start testing now :-).

Also note that if you are using the "Flat file workaround" or Gsettings
backend with "desktop integration" disabled this patch should not affect
you. So to verify the patch actually fixes the issue, you should export
your settings, switch to gsettings backend and turn on desktop
integration and import your settings.
