** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
  
- Whenever compiz would crash in gusty, I could go to
- System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual effects tab and choose "Custom"
- to restore its custom settings configured via CompizConfig.  Now, that
- radio button doesn't exist, or at least, when it crashes (which AFAIK is
- basically some very strange process deciding to change aforementioned
- radio button to "none") the button vanishes.  THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!  It
- means I have to manually set all of my configuration settings (I have
- extensive configuration).  It seems that the radio buttons which used to
- choose between several presets and a custom one now break into and mess
- up CompizConfig.  Combined with Bug #225014, this is going to make
- OpenOffice.org almost impossible for me to use.
+ There is no longer a "custom" radio button in the dialog box at 
System->Preferences->Appearance->Visual Effects tab.  Furthermore, selecting a 
preset configuration will overwrite your custom configuration.
+ To reproduce:
+ 0. Have Hardy, CompizConfig installed
+ 1. Set some custom options via CC.  I recommend turning on plugins relating 
to the cube because they are not favored by the presets
+ 2. Open the dialog via the aforementioned path
+ 3. choose a preset (like "none" or "normal")
+ 4. Look at your settings in CompizConfig.  Your custom settings will have 
been overwritten.
+ In gusty, the custom settings would have been unchanged but ignored until you 
played with them again.  Now they're overwritten.
