I've found a workaround for this bug. As root I ran for ff in /usr/share/gconf/schemas/*gnucash* ; do gconftool-2 --config-source=xml::/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults \ --install-schema-file $ff done pkill gconfd # since gconftool-2 --shutdown was ineffective
After I did this the annoying "Can't find default values" prompt has mercifully gone away. Note that the script update-gnucash-gconf wants to do this, but it's hardcoded to install the schemas from /etc/gconf/schemas, which doesn't exist. It seems that in Debian the schemas have been moved to /usr/share/gconf/schemas, but (1) the old directory name is hardcoded into the script and hasn't been updated; and (2) the script doesn't check first that the schema exists, so the user gets an error message. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
