Bug Description

Hi!
The GSettings schema file "org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.updates.gschema.xml" is missing in Ubuntu's version of the GSD package. (It is present in Debian)
Please add this file, some applications like the GNOME-PackageKit preferences need it installed (will crash otherwise).

Thank you for your bug report, not building this code is a choice, it would duplicate functionaties from update-notifier and update-manager, cost session login time and be less well integrated with the Ubuntu packaging tools

Sebastien, that's not really the way you disable things in g-s-d. Schema can't be shipped by other programs into the g-s-d namespace. If you want to disable shipping the auto-updates plugin that's fine, but the schema has to be installed otherwise other programs that rely on it are going to start crashing.

I have to agree, shipping this file is independent from enabling the auto-update plugin.
As programs relying on the schema are already crashing, this bug is definitely not a 'whishlist' item...
I hope this can be resolved! :)
