Hi Geert I ran sudo glib-compile-schemas /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas and could see that it updated /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemasg/schemas.compiled. I checked XDG_DATA_DIRS and that does include /usr/share. I rebooted just in case. Yet still the settings are not found by gnucash and when I run dconf-editor then again they are not there. I have checked with a system with working GC 3.3 to make sure I am looking in the right place in dconf-editor. I have looked in /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas/org.gnucash.gschema.xml and can see that the key definitions are there.
Very strange.
