      helper, revert upstream commit and port to dbus session tracking.

Still problem at Saucy Final Beta

The proposed fix don`t actually fix the bug, it is still present in gnome-settings-daemon 3.8.5-0ubuntu6.

Status needs to be downgraded from "Fix Released".

Could those still having the issue open a new bug report, the bug listed here got resolved:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/?h=gnome-3-8&id=d5151b90f8d05712c16df7a6737e8ac0b68ab9fb

There might be new issues specific to some devices/configs so it would be nice to have a fresh report to not have a confusing log

upstream reopened it in fact, seems it's indeed not fixed, reopening this one as well

upstream is adding some new patches that could use testing, if somebody having hardware showing the issue want to try...

Upstream commited a fix:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/gnome-settings-daemon/commit/?h=gnome-3-10&id=36920e3a9c193badec2898a9a8b979f51d7be094

I've backported it/uploaded as a SRU

This bug was fixed in the package gnome-settings-daemon - 3.8.5-0ubuntu9
