[SOLVED] ccsm not working after installing Unity from repo.

Question

Hi, I've been having this problem for a while now, I've been trying to fix it on my own for the last couple of weeks but I wasn't able to help my self searching on internet.
As stated on the title, I've installed Unity for arch from the repository following the guide on the wiki https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unity.
Since then I haven't been able to open the Compiz Config Settings Manager. I think that the problem may be that the ccsm I've got is the one for compiz 0.8.x
not the 0.9.9 I've got after installing the package "compiz-ubuntu" for unity to work.
This is the output I get when trying to run the command ccsm:
[augusto@localhost ~]$ ccsm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/ccsm", line 126, in <module>
    context = compizconfig.Context(screens)
  File "compizconfig.pyx", line 1120, in compizconfig.Context.__cinit__
TypeError: an integer is required
I hope I can fix this soon with your help
Thank you very much for taking your time to read.

Okay, updating right now, this feels quite fine!!! Hope it works.
Thank you very much man, you where the only one who tried to help me!
edit: Just checked the wiki, I might have missed it the time I installed unity, or they added it after I installed it, I thought xe xe was the only repo.
Still No luck
this is the output of running ccsm on console
[augusto@localhost ~]$ ccsm
compizconfig - Info: Backend     : gsettings
compizconfig - Info: Integration : true
compizconfig - Info: Profile     : unity

Any ideas?
