GDM 3.8.1.1 (Saucy) depends on dconf-tools

Thanks for reporting this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.

According to Debian, gdm actually needs dconf-cli instead:

We'll still have ubuntu-gnome-desktop depend on dconf-editor though. I don't know if Ubuntu itself will continue to include dconf-editor or not by default.

This bug was fixed in the package gdm - 3.8.4-0ubuntu1
