Ok, after looking more closely at the issue, here are the details:
In Lucid /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu was a dangling symlink
when doing a fresh install. Jonathan made an SRU to fix that just after
release by fixing the symlink to point to somewhere that actually
exists.
So after the SRU we basically had /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu
being a symlink of /usr/share/edubuntu-artwork/gconf/default which
itself is a symlink to /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu-artwork-
settings
That means that both /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu and
/usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu-artwork-settings are the same
file. That's not causing any gconf issue that we know of, it's just bad
and will be fixed in Natty.
In Maverick, we no longer create /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu,
only /usr/share/gconf/defaults/20-edubuntu-artwork-settings exists in
the package.
So basically, the bug is only going to appear for someone who installed
Edubuntu 10.04 and never upgraded their system. As our upgrade instructions
include a system upgrade prior to doing a dist-upgrade, that bug isn't supposed
to happen.
I still agree that 20-edubuntu should be removed for people upgrading
but it's not causing any issue as long as the upgrade process is
respected so it can and will be fixed in the first natty upload of
edubuntu-artwork.
Marking the bug as Invalid. If I'm completely wrong, please feel free to
re-open ;)
