Bug#251110: gnome-session: Produces bunch of errors after latest upgrade. Fails to start.

[Adam Majer]

Package: gnome-session
Version: 2.6.1-5
Followup-For: Bug #251110

The error I'm getting is,

 There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
 Some things, such as themes, sounds, or background settings may not work correctly.
 The Settings Daemon restarted too many times.
 The last error message was:
 Child process did not give an error message, unknown failure occurred
 GNOME will still try to restart the Settings Daemon next time you log in.

It would be nice to know in the message *where is GNOME Settings Daemon?*
What settings were used to start it?

Please make error messages better than these "Windows" type error messages. 
If you want, add an "Advanced" button before displaying gory details.
