Bug Description

Binary package hint: unity

I have build Unity from sources using the instructions at http://askubuntu.com/questions/28470/how-do-i-build-unity-from-source/28472#28472

When I do : compiz --replace (or unity --reset) I get :

(<unknown>:2013): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_bus_own_name: assertion `g_dbus_is_name (name) && !g_dbus_is_unique_name (name)' failed
