Bug#517333: gconf2: Stops working after a while

[Sam Morris]

severity 517333 normal
thanks

I've worked out what is causing the problem. I have a script that
changes my desktop background every 30 minutes. It is run from cron.

Since gconf 2.24, it no longer works because gconf uses dbus for
communication, and the script launched by cron does not have access to a
session dbus.

I changed the line in my crontab to run the script via 'dbus-launch'
which does make it work, but whenever it runs, it causes the problems in
this bug report.
