There are quite a few changes on our end being dropped. Could you be a
bit more specific as to why they're dropped?

 -  debian/70gconfd_path-on-session is dropped
 - there'll be gconf-service and gconf-service-backend - will this cause upgrade problems?
 - some (build-)dependencies, do they cause any changes?
 - debian/patches/0001-Support-s-to-as-migrations-v2.patch is dropped
 - many changes in the maintainer scripts are dropped
 - debian/patches/02_xml-gettext-domain.patch is dropped
 - debian/patches/05_nodisplay_autostart.patch is dropped
 - debian/patches/call-dbus_g_thread_init.patch is dropped

** Changed in: gconf (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Sync gconf 3.2.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Status in “gconf” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Please sync gconf 3.2.6-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

  Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
    * New upstream version
      - gsettings-schema-convert: Fix conversion of empty lists
    * debian/patches/06_onlyshowin_unity.patch:
      - dropped, the fix is in the new version
    * New upstream version
      - gsettings-schema-convert: Fix conversion of empty lists
    * debian/patches/06_onlyshowin_unity.patch:
      - dropped, the fix is in the new version
    * debian/tests/build:
      - Add -Wall -Werror for being more thorough.
      - Don't call deprecated g_type_init() when building with glib >= 2.35.
    * Added a simple compile/link/run test for libgconf2-dev. (LP: #1078719)
    * debian/patches/0001-Support-s-to-as-migrations-v2.patch:
      - Support string to string array migrations (LP: #1048956)
    * debian/patches/0001-Support-s-to-as-migrations-v2.patch:
      - Support string to string array migrations (LP: #1048956)
    * debian/patches/call-dbus_g_thread_init.patch:
      - Initialize dbus threads before doing anything. This fixes crashes in
        multithreaded applications that don't use libdbus directly. (LP: #1048341)
    * Split gconf-service further into gconf-service and gconf-service-backend,
      one package being Multi-Arch: foreign and the other Multi-Arch: none, so
      that we correctly handle the fact that gconf2 needs backend modules of
      the same arch whereas other reverse-dependencies just need a working
      daemon.  LP: #962854.
    * Split gconf-service further into gconf-service and gconf-service-backend,
      one package being Multi-Arch: foreign and the other Multi-Arch: none, so
      that we correctly handle the fact that gconf2 needs backend modules of
      the same arch whereas other reverse-dependencies just need a working
      daemon.  LP: #962854.
    * New upstream version
    * libgconf2-4 and libgconf-2-4 should both have a Breaks: against the
      older version of gconf2, to ensure that our trigger is never called
      when gconftool is in an unusable state (due to either missing libraries
      or missing backend DSOs).  LP: #948294.
    * New upstream version
    * Merge from Debian testing, remaining changes:
      - debian/control.in:
        + don't package the gsettings backend since it's not meant to be
          distributed
      - debian/control.in, debian/rules:
        + use dh-autoreconf
      - debian/patches/02_xml-gettext-domain.patch:
        + use gettext from schemas translations
      - debian/patches/05_nodisplay_autostart.patch:
        + Don't show in "Startup Applications"
      - debian/patches/06_onlyshowin_unity.patch:
        + Add Unity to OnlyShowIn
      - debian/70gconfd_path-on-session, debian/gconf2-common.install:
        + add additional gconf path depending on selected desktop session:
      - debian/gconf-schemas: Shrink the generated %gconf-tree.xml, by
        filtering out locale specific defaults for uninstalled locales,
        leading tabs, empty short descriptions, and mtimes (which aren't
        interesting for system-wide defaults).
      - debian/gconf2.triggers, debian/gconf2.postinst, debian/gconf2.postrm:
        + Declare a new trigger on /usr/share/GConf/gsettings to watch when
          new gsettings convert files are installed.
      - debian/default.path, debian/gconf2-common.dirs:
        + drop old compatibility path from intrepid, that was required until
          lucid
    * Dropped changes:
      - debian/control.in: no build-dependency on gnome-common, we're using
        dh-autoreconf.
      - Build using dh_python2: merged in Debian.
      - Mark gconf2 Multi-Arch: foreign: merged in Debian.
