Fixed. Thanks.

Invoked from a telnet console running in LinuxAos on the same machine.
Similar to invoking from a plain text console on another machine on
the LAN.
(I'm aware that telnet is not secure but the scenario is in a
Shorewalled system.)

Always. LinuxAos is a graphical application.

Never.
Now tried this analogue. Start mousepad from a ssh console on another
machine on the LAN.
No dconf-WARNING but this message is spewed.
(mousepad:13080): Gtk-WARNING **: 10:57:15.680: Theme parsing error:

My conclusion: the ssh process handles something right for dconf.
LinuxAos fails to do that.
If someone has a more specific idea about dconf, it can help.
