Title:
  "Universal Access" panel crashes if overlay-scrollbar isn't installed
  (g_settings_new() on absent schema)

Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in gnome-control-center source package in Quantal:
  Won't Fix
Status in gnome-control-center source package in Raring:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  We have a patch in the control-centre that depends on a schema that
  may not be installed (if overlay scrollbars have been removed).

  This causes the entire control centre to crash when trying to open the
  a11y panel if overlay scrollbars have been uninstalled (which is
  something particularly likely to be done by a user requiring a11y
  features, since overlay scrollbars are known to cause issues for these
  users).
