This is an upstream issue with GNOME 3, and there is little we can do about the issue unfortunately.

There's a trick you can use to bypass the problem and it's
sudo dpkg -i --force-all /var/cache/apt/archives/gnome-session_3.0.1-0ubuntu1~build2_all.deb

It solved for me, but it's just a temporary workaround ;)

It seems to work for me now. The GNOME 3 team has put through a lot of new packages in the past few days, this may have fixed the issue. Try this:
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get -f dist-upgrade

It appears that the GNOME 3 team put through a broken package accidentally, and have long since fixed it. I am marking this issue as fix released. If it is not fixed for you, please change it back to confirmed.
