Are you sure about that?  For Oneiric, which the bug was opened about:

bladernr@klaatu:~/development/checkbox$ grep -i gconf debian/control; 
echo $?

Same with checkbox 0.11.

And current checkbox-certification.

Perhaps we just assumed gconf2 was installed as it was previously part 
of Main and installed by default?

bladernr@klaatu:~/development/checkbox-certification$ apt-cache policy 
gconf2
gconf2:
   Installed: 2.32.2-0ubuntu2
   Candidate: 2.32.2-0ubuntu2
   Version table:
  *** 2.32.2-0ubuntu2 0
         500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ natty/main amd64 Packages
         100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Thats from my Natty system.
