Settings schema 'com.canonical.Unity2d.Panel' is not installed

Question

I'm unable to run unity-2d-panel. I've tried apt-get --reinstall. This is with 11.10 32 bit Oneiric - upgraded from Natty. Any idea how to get past this?
Here is the .xsession-errors when starting Ubuntu 2d: http://paste.ubuntu.com/708039/ In a terminal, I get:

unity-2d-panel: [FATAL] Settings schema 'com.canonical.Unity2d.Panel' is not installed

Ok. I've gotten past this, I used dpkg to list all packages having 'unity' in them and re-installed all of them, it turns out some of the dependencies were wrong and somehow unity-2d-places and unity-2d-spread were not installed. It seems something deeper has gone wrong in my packaging... I'm now having missing icons, etc.

Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! This question should instead be filed as a bug report, thanks! Instructions here. — jrg, Oct 14 '11 at 14:43
More context might help -- what version of Ubuntu are you running? — belacqua, Oct 14 '11 at 14:48
