From the Debian mailing list:
Multiple people seem to have this issue, including me. The problem is
solved in gnome-shell from unstable, you can either wait until it
migrates to testing (in 1 or 2 days I guess, judging from the QA page
[1]) or you can install from unstable with "aptitude install -t unstable
gnome-shell" (no quotes). Make sure you have unstable in your
sources.list file. Just be careful not to upgrade your whole system to
unstable, but only that package.
It worked for me!

Look at your /var/log/dpkg.log and see what packages were updated. You
could then go look at open bugs on those packages at
packages.debian.org. The aptosid.com forums are also useful for
researching debian testing or unstable breakage. Good luck - as a user
of debian testing and unstable I've been there before.
