You're probably seeing dpkg's config file handling: /etc/xdg/compiz
/compiz-manager, being under /etc/, is a config file and policy is that
any changes the user has made to a config file should be preserved on
package upgrades.  Since you've deleted that file, dpkg assumes you've
done that deliberately and won't overwrite your config change.

You can get around this by either purging the compiz-core package (which
will reset dpkg's conf file handling), or extract the file from the deb
and put it in the right place yourself.
