Proposed a SRU package for oneiric

[Summary]

Patch: http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ossug-hychen/gnome-settings-daemon/fix-868400-oneiric/revision/184

bzr branch: https://code.launchpad.net/~ossug-hychen/gnome-settings-daemon/fix-868400-oneiric

[IMPACT]

 * touchpad is disabled sometines because 2 syndaemon instances. (one is launched by lightdm, anthoer one is launched by current user.)
 * ALPS touchpad does not use syndaemon, so ALPS users will not be impacted.

[TESTCASE]

 1. kill gnome-settings-daemon
 2. check syndaemon has only 1 instance after gnome-setitngs-daemon re-launched

[Regression Potential]

 * the patch is from gnome-settings-daemon package in precise
 * the risk is low because the patch only add the code to make sure syndaemon be killed if gnome-settings-daemon is killed
