...except that --debug isn't one of gsd-color's recognized parameters,
and adding it caused GDM to fail to start. I changed it to --verbose
which is available.

    10.08 jani@saegusa:~$ LC_ALL=C /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-color 
--help-all
    Usage:
      gsd-color [OPTION?] color

    Help Options:
      -h, --help               Show help options
      --help-all               Show all help options
      --help-gtk               Show GTK+ Options

    GTK+ Options
      --class=CLASS            Program class as used by the window manager
      --name=NAME              Program name as used by the window manager
      --gdk-debug=FLAGS        GDK debugging flags to set
      --gdk-no-debug=FLAGS     GDK debugging flags to unset
      --gtk-module=MODULES     Load additional GTK+ modules
      --g-fatal-warnings       Make all warnings fatal
      --gtk-debug=FLAGS        GTK+ debugging flags to set
      --gtk-no-debug=FLAGS     GTK+ debugging flags to unset

    Application Options:
      --exit-time              Exit after n seconds time
      --dummy-name             Name when using the dummy daemon
      -v, --verbose            Verbose
      --display=DISPLAY        X display to use

There's also --gtk-debug and --gdk-debug, but I could do with a little
help for what to select for those, as just giving 'all' seems a little
counterproductive (for instance, "touchscreen" and "interactive" don't
seem very useful here).

    10.03 jani@saegusa:~$ LC_ALL=C /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-color 
--gtk-debug help 
    Supported debug values: misc plugsocket text tree updates keybindings 
multihead modules geometry icontheme printing builder size-request no-css-cache 
baselines pixel-cache no-pixel-cache interactive touchscreen actions resize 
layout all help

    10.04 jani@saegusa:~$ LC_ALL=C /usr/lib/gnome-settings-daemon/gsd-color 
--gdk-debug help
    Supported debug values: events misc dnd xim nograbs input cursor multihead 
xinerama draw eventloop frames settings opengl all help
    Error parsing option --gdk-debug

(Looks like --gdk-debug reports an error with 'help', despite having
just listed it as one of the options.)

Title:
  Unrecoverable failure in required component
  org.gnome.SettingsDaemon.Color.desktop

Status in gnome-settings-daemon package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I've had this happen a couple of times now since upgrading to 18.04:
  soon (perhaps within a minute) after logging in, Gnome session ends
  abruptly and I'm thrown back to the login screen. IIRC, in both
  instances this occurred on the first login after boot, so it does not
  reoccur on the subsequent re-login, and not on every login (very
  rarely in fact), and for now I have no better steps to reproduce this
  other than "boot, log in".

  Bug #1663839 (reported against 17.04) seems similar, as does bug
  #1731428 (reported against 17.10).

  journalctl output during the issue:
