Bug#548394: [gnome-power-manager] gnome fails to start, Install problem

[Wendy Elmer]

Package: gnome-power-manager
Version: 2.24.4-3
Severity: serious

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
One of the logins on my computer started failing after the recent gnome
upgrades that hit squeeze.  The following message pops up during gnome login 
and gnome fails to start.

Install problem
The configuration defaults for GNOME power manager
have not been installed correctly.
Please contact your computer administrator.

Another login on the same computer does not have the problem.  How can I 
fix it?
