Public bug reported:

In jaunty gnome-session 2.25.3-0ubuntu1 contains a patch to change the 
gconf-key "/desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager" from 
"metacity" to "gnome-wm".
gnome-wm however is lacking a .desktop file which seems to be required by the 
new gnome-session for these components.
This results in the following error message:
gnome-session[9933]: WARNING: Unable to find provider 'gnome-wm' of required 
component 'windowmanager'

Also the patch is applied to /usr/share/gconf/defaults/10_gnome-session but 
/usr/share/gconf/schemas/gnome-session.schemas still contains:
<default>metacity</default>

This can be a little bit confusing if you unset the according key in
gconf-editor, then it shows "metacity" but if you start gconf-editor
again it shows "gnome-wm". However I'm not sure if this is a bug in that
patch or if it is correct and the bug is in gconf.
