orbit2 needs update in debian unstable

Hello!

Alot of people (me included) are having problems with logging into gnome
in unstable now that the 3.0 migration has started.
(I was running 3.0 from experimental before and for some reason didn't
have the problem there.....weird.)
When logging into gnome it says "Oh no! A problem has occured. The system
can not recover..." because gnome-settings-daemon crashes.

Anyway... I debugged my problem a bit and found that the same problem
had previously been handled in ubuntu, please see:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/orbit2/+bug/788710

Apparently orbit2 is causing gnome-settings-daemon to crash, fixed
by the patch mentioned in the above bug report and included in the
ubuntu package (which also updates the package to a new upstream
bugfix release which might not be a bad idea.)

Would be awesome if you could have a look at updating the package in Debian!

Thanks in advance!
