After a recent upgrade, many applications running under gnome X11
stopped using gnome's settings. (Like large text, cursor theme, etc.)
Digging into it, I found that org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.XSettings.service
had failed to start with this error message:

feb 21 23:54:27 solaria gsd-xsettings[2760]: Settings schema
'org.gnome.desktop.a11y.interface' does not contain a key named
'show-status-shapes'

Upgrading gsettings-desktop-schemas from 45.0-2 to 46~beta-3 seems to
have fixed the problem. So I think gnome-settings-daemon's dependency on
gsettings-desktop-schemas (>= 42~) should be updated to require a newer
version?

Control: forcemerge 1064438 -1

Yes, it's already marked as release-critical and pending upload.
