Comment 7 for bug 274728

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-settings-daemon - 2.24.0-0ubuntu2

---------------
gnome-settings-daemon (2.24.0-0ubuntu2) intrepid; urgency=low

  [ William Grant ]
  * debian/patches/08_extra_touchpad_options.patch:
    - Update for the new property API. (LP: #274728)
      + No longer use XQueryDeviceProperty to check if a property exists - the
        function has been removed.
      + Remove the 'pending' argument from calls to XGetDeviceProperty.
    - Don't trust that a device that looks like a touchpad has all properties
      that a real touchpad does, as properties can be added by a user, and
      things segfault.
    - Label set failure warnings with the device name to make things a bit
      less scary.
    - Fix a couple of compiler warnings.
