------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-27-06 11:39 ------- to 1.: maybe the schemas should only be deinstalled on package removal and not on upgrades. to 2. : I don't know if schemas will have to be reinstalled, I think we should test this. -- Configure bugmail: http://qa.mandrakesoft.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: NEW creation_date: description: The default gconf database (/etc/gconf) is altered by severl package post install scripts. It is easily possible to overwrite the settings of already installed packages (e.g. totem and nautilus-media video thumbnailer do this). It also seems to be impossible to undo some changes once made by the post install scripts leaving dead/unworking stuff in there breaking things (see Bug 4097 for an example). So we end up having race conditions between packages again: the last one overwrites the configuration of the previous ones and never undoes them when uninstalled.
