®om: The directions in that post should give you a workaround plugin
that is very similar to the one in my package (despite that post’s
author’s misunderstanding of Git; `git revert` means undo a diff, not
“revert to” a commit).

I suspect you have something weird in your home directory that you
copied over across the fresh reinstall.  Did you have a
~/.compiz/plugins/libworkarounds.so and
~/.compiz/metadata/workarounds.xml that would have been overriding the
global ones?  (You certainly do now that you’ve followed those
directions; but if you had ever done any manual installation of compiz
plugins in the past as well, that would obviously have prevented my
package from having any effect.)

I recommend removing your ~/.compiz/plugins and ~/.compiz/metadata
directories (or even entirely wiping out your compiz settings with rm
~/.compiz -rf; gconftool-2 --recursive-unset /apps/compiz), then
reinstalling all compiz packages from apt.  Or you could try again after
creating a fresh new account and logging into it.
