key binding to launch gnome-control-center doesn't work

[Marius Gedminas]

There's a default keybinding of XF86Tools to launch gnome-control-center. On my ThinkPad X390's keyboard it is Fn-F9. This keybinding no longer works in Ubuntu 22.10. Instead I see this error in my journal:

    spal. 22 20:27:34 blynas gsd-media-keys[3793]: Could not find application 'gnome-control-center.desktop' or '(null)'

AFACT gnome-control-center 43 renamed the .desktop file to /usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Settings.desktop

This was fixed upstream in version 42.beta: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-settings-daemon/-/commit/371a1260630035724e20972ae5bda7098e2928a7

Ubuntu explicitly reverts that in debian/patches/ubuntu/Revert-media-keys-fix-gnome-settings-desktop-file.patch with the rationale

> Ubuntu isn't getting the rename until gnome-control-center 42

Well, 22.10 now has gnome-control-center 43 with the .desktop file rename, so this patch ought to be dropped.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

After upgrading to Ubuntu 22.10, I get the same error when using the hotkeys set in Keyboard Shortcuts -> Launchers -> Settings.
