As I already said, gnome control center does not use GConf anymore for this, since a year already, so what we need is a list of apps that still use GConf, and we need to migrate them to use GSettings or, as a fallback, make them use the correct GConf keys. This specific GConf keys are not used anymore on the GSettings version, so even though we have the GConf keys synced up with their corresponding GSettings keys (via a plugin in gnome-settings-daemon), of course only the keys that are changed in GSettings are synced. This means that the keys we don't use will always have the same value in GConf.
So could people list the applications affected, or even better, add a task to this bug for that specific app, so that the responsible for each of those apps can have a look at patching it. But again, there's nothing that can be done in gnome-control-center/gnome-settings-daemon -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/876839 Title: Proxy GUI in 11.10 does not configure socks proxy for HTTP traffic To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/876839/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
