Description:   Opened: 2006-01-26 03:16 0000 
GConf version 2.12.1 shipped with a crasher bug in gconf_unescape_key that
manifests itself routinely.
The bug is described in more detail at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328390 and is fixed in CVS, but there
are no 2.12 releases with the fix in it.

This is a rather critical bug, I feel we should have the patch applied in the
tree, at least until a new release is made.

The patch fails because "eutils" was not obtained via "inherit".  I
see this error message:

  /usr/portage/gnome-base/gconf/gconf-2.12.1-r1.ebuild: line 48: epatch:
command not found

Oops, didnt notice that, fixed in portage.  Please sync and test.
