--- Begin Message ---Package: gnome-mplayer Version: 1.0.8-1 Severity: normal Hello, I noticed a misbehavior of gnome-mplayer with respect to the dconf configuration management. After the following steps: 0) start dconf-editor 1) reset all gnome-mplayer/gecko-mediaplayer preferences to their defaults 2) quit dconf-editor 3) start gnome-mplayer 4) enter its preferences dialog window and just take a look around (without changing anything) 5) exit from the dialog window 6) quit gnome-mplayer 7) start dconf-editor many settings are again marked as manually-changed (in boldface font), even though almost all of these are actually equal to their default value; some values are indeed non-default (such as audio-lang, for instance). I do not experience this awkward behavior, if I skip steps 4 and 5. It seems to me that the gnome-mplayer internal configuration dialog window does something strange to ~/.config/dconf/user ... I don't think it should save anything to the configuration file, if I haven't changed any setting at all! In other words, the configuration file should stay absolutely untouched, unless I actually changed something. And anyway, it should not mark settings as manually-changed, if I haven't changed them manually. Finally, it should not set some options to non-default values (such as audio-lang, for instance), if I haven't done anything to them. I think that the configuration dialog is not working as expected. Please forward this bug report upstream.
