Hi,

the problem is a little bit similar to bug #77504.
After installing new packages I got the same error message as mentioned in the other bugreport as follows:

"There was an error starting the GNOME Settings Daemon.
    Somethings, such as themes,sounds,or
background settings may not work correctly.

The Last error message was:
     Did not receive a reply.Possible cause include:
The remote application did not send a reply, the
message bus security policy blocked the reply,
the reply timeout expired or the network
connection was broken.
     GNOME will still try to restart the setting
Daemon next time you log in."

I will attach a screenshot showing you my desktop with wrong theme and some error messages and the .xsession-errors file shortly.

Noticeable things that stops working:
- sound
- update-notifyer
- panel is disordered

btw - I could reproduce this on another machine as well ....
