Compositing plugin changes, from 4.3.1 to 4.3.2

While packaging the KDE 4.3.2 suite, and hearing the reviews/posts of people that are helping to QA the packages, it appears that a few of the composting plugins have disappeared.

with out any tweaks to the package build scripts, it seems that from "System Settings" -> Desktop Effects" -> "All Effects" -> "Window Management" section, the Sphere and Cylinder options are gone.

comparing the two kdebase-workspace packages, there are no files missing. it must be a compiled in option missing, or a new dependency?

the two build scripts, for review are

http://cardinal.lizella.net/~vbatts/kde/kde4-packages/4.3.2/source/kde/kdebase-workspace/

Take care,

You may wish to ask on #kwin on Freenode. It may be that they were removed due to stability concerns.
