Posting now, but the bug is this:
running: gconftool-2 -t string -s /desktop/gnome/background/picture_filename /mnt/c/Program Files/Canon/ZoomBrowser EX/Image Library One/frisco - 10-11-2002/113-1339_IMG.JPG
Error on option -: unknown option.
Run 'gconftool-2 --help' to see a full list of available command line options.
my desktop image filename has spaces in it. nothing a well placed
quotation mark can't handle.
Sorry I didn't report it, I didn't know how to get any useful data
from the failure. Maybe a debconf info dialog about where the log is
located and what to do incase of failure is in order.
