Hi,

When upgrading to Firefox 41.0, the build failed with:
---
configure: error: * * * Could not find gconf-2.0

Actually, the behavior has changed for FF 41, see:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1167201

There are two possibilities:
a) Add --disable-gconf to mozconfig
b) Make gconf a recommended dependency

The definition we use for gconf is : contains a configuration database
system used by many GNOME applications.

Does FF need that?  I suspect not.  My reaction is to put gconf into the
optional dependencies and use --disable-gconf in the mozconfig file.

Has FF been tested without gconf?

Yes, I'm running it withouth gconf for a week now, without any problems. Same for thunderbird.
