Description
Whenever I run gconftool to query the GConf database, I get a warning about a non-existent config file in "/etc/gconf":
$ gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme (gconftool-2:64815): GConf-WARNING **: Failed to load source "xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.system": Failed: Could not make directory `/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.system': No such file or directory gnome

Replying to jmr@…:
Looking at the source, this appears to be quite deliberate.
So is the warning really necessary then? It just adds noise to the queries.

Closing, as this appears to be an upstream issue and the port currently has no maintainer.
Note: See
TracTickets for help on using
tickets.
Looking at the source, this appears to be quite deliberate. Per-instance config files are read from ${prefix}/etc and per-machine from /etc, much like MySQL does with my.cnf for example.
