Bug Description
Impact:
it makes unit-2d not usable with some dconf setups
Steps to reproduce:
- create a dconf profile with multiple databases
- log into an unity-2d session
-> without the fix unity-d wouldn't start
Regression potential:
limited, that dconf code is only used by unity-2d (qt), shouldn't have any impact on the standard GNOME users, just check that unity-2d is still working
---
I see a pointer on a background with no panel or notification area.
Right-click brings up the expected menu.
Ctrl-Alt-<arrow> seems to be switching between (empty) workspaces: the UI responds at least.
Attached is the .xsession-errors, which shows that unity-2d-panel has crashed repeatedly.

Hey Thomas,
I coudln't reproduce this issue following the test case. I would be interesting in seeing the stacktrace from unity-2d that you are getting, can you report it please?
