It happened. I did a dist-upgrade, Unity updated, Compiz didn't. I ended up with a Desktop with no Unity. Compiz errors showed... compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin '/usr/lib/compiz/libunityshell.so' : /usr/lib/compiz/libunityshell.so: undefined symbol: _ZN10CompOption7setNameEPKcNS_4TypeE compiz (core) - Error: Couldn't load plugin 'unityshell' until I... echo compiz install | sudo dpkg --set-selections echo compiz-core install | sudo dpkg --set-selections sudo apt-get upgrade No more Cube again... It's only being a year now, look at the first post. At this point the options for a user are, no-dist upgrade, or set unity on dpkg hold, or no cube. I'm surprised things worked this long with the unmaintained repo. For the impatient, well, be patient, eventually we will all move on to something else and not care anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of compiz packagers, which is subscribed to compiz in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/862430 Title: window flicker for a short time after switching workspaces To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/compiz/+bug/862430/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~compiz Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~compiz More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
