Public bug reported:

until recent updates,

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.background picture-uri
'file:////home/jerry/Pictures/Shark_Island.jpg'

reset wallpaper to the desired picture.  Most of the time Wily boots to
a horizontally hashed wallpaper which used to be corrected by doing
gsettings once or twice or three times, now I have to go to settings >
wallpaper > to set the jpg several times until it clears up.

Now gsettings fails, gets the original brown screen.  gsettings is
broken failing to set the desired wallpaper.
