Bug#265507: nautilus: unable to update desktop background

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.6.3-2
Severity: normal
After running for a couple of hours, Nautilus seems to lose the 'link'
to the desktop background gconf keys. Changing them from the Desktop
Background Preferences, or with gconftool, no longer causes the desktop
background to be updated. Killing nautilus causes a new nautilus process
to be launched, which works as expected, for a few hours, when the
problem repeats itself.
I'm not really sure where to begin debugging this problem but am happy
to provide any information to help track this down.
