Bug 158013 - app-office/gnucash-2.0.x fails to configure default values
Bug#: 158013 Product:  Gentoo Linux Version: unspecified Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux Status: RESOLVED Severity: normal Priority: P4

Description:   Opened: 2006-12-13 04:21 0000 
Whenever I start gnucash I get the messages you can see by the provided URL. I
believe the problem is that I do not have GNOME installed, but just some
libraries.

I have the following in my ~/.gconf.path:
<START>
######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ########
xml:readwrite:$(HOME)/.gconf
xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults
############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ##############
<END>

Whenever I run the setup I will get the following lines appended:
<START>
######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ########
xml:readonly:/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults
############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ##############
<END>

I'm sorry to say that I'm not so familiar with GNOME and do not fully
understand this bug, so you need to guide me to whatever additional information
you may need.

May depend on bug #165060 , bug #143012 , bug #164974 and block bug #163921 ?

Same thing for me with 2.0.5 on guile-1.6.8. I'm running KDE.

Tom Fredrik Blenning Klaussen, that URL is now dead BTW. Please attach if
possible.

Sorry, to many problems with changing ISP, my new ISP for some reason decided
to block incoming connections. They are hereby ditched, and the URL is working
again.

I've tested 2.0.1 and 2.0.5. Bug is present only in 2.0.5.

It seems that gnucash entries are not inserted into
/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/%gconf-tree*.xml files by gnucash-2.0.5 ebuild.
The bug appears only if gnucash-2.0.5 is emerged first time (not upgraded from
2.0.1). After downgrade to 2.0.1 and then upgrade to 2.0.5, problem disappears.

BTW, I've tried to install and run unofficial gnucash-2.1.1 (ebuild
http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/gnucash-2.1.x.ebuild from
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=174967) and it has the same problem with
gconf default values.

If this is not fixed if you install gnucash-2.2.1-r1, reopen the bug, please.

Thanks

Yeah, with Gnucash 2.2.1-r1 I have no problems with gconf. Thank you.
