Description Andreas Proschofsky (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-02-09 08:28:10 UTC 
As far as I can see the only piece of code in caribou that is calling gconf is purely conditional, so no need to have that as hard dependency (as it won't ever be called on any recent GNOME installation)

http://git.gnome.org/browse/caribou/tree/caribou/daemon/main.py

For further reference: The dependency on gconf has been dropped upstream for quite some time:

http://git.gnome.org/browse/caribou/commit/?id=9134d8d4316b14a4bdaac11295d8b8d108712f93

Reproducible: Always
