Bug Description

Unity is crashes on startup when installing from the staging ppa.

I also tried to test gsettings migration (http://www.theorangenotebook.com/2012/08/call-for-testing-compiz-unity.html). The version from (ppa:timo-jyrinki/prerelease) starts fine but crashes after a few seconds of use.

I've attached the console output for "unity --debug" for the version from ppa:timo-jyrinki/prerelease

I removed ~/.compiz* and unity has not crashed since. Marking as invalid for now. Will report back if the issue resurfaces.
