I was running into the same WARNING message and was able to eliminate it
by replacing two files in the directory /usr/share/gconf/schemas. The
files, control-center.schemas and gnome-control-center.schemas, were
moved to .orig files. The source of the replacement files was this URL:

http://search.4shared.com/q/1/control-center.schemas

After a re-install of update-manager, the WARNING was gone and
desktop.en_US.utf8.cache was rebuilt:

Unpacking replacement update-manager ...

Setting up update-manager (1:0.134.11) ...

After a dpkg-reconfigure gconf2, there was no WARNING message.

It may have happened during an Ubuntu update when gnome-control-center
was also updated, since both the files were much larger and quite
different from the .orig files. I have compressed the new files and
attached them.

Ubuntu Lucid 10.04.3 LTS
