Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-control-
There is no longer a "custom" radio button in the dialog box at System-
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.

Update:This is unrelated to the package simple-ccsm. It does add a radio button properly (you can tell because the "preferences" button opens a "simple" ccsm), but CompizConfig itself won't (see screenshot if you cannot tell which compizconfig is broken).
Update: It seems CCSM (CompizConfig) doesn't work *at all* >Preferences- >Appearance- >Visual effects tab, and click a radio button.
To reproduce:
1. Install CCSM
2. play with the settings. Turn something noticeable, such as the desktop cube, on
3. If you can see the effect of step 2 (else goto step 4), go to System-
4. Your settings in CCSM are ignored in favor of the (extremely simplistic) settings shown in the screenshot.
