Package: debhelper Version: 4.9.13 Severity: wishlist
One of the Google Summer of Code projects[1] analized GNOME starup times. One of the big-ticket items was gconfd's reads of the gconf defaults database. He discovered that gconf has support for reading a pre-merged configuration hierarchy, and that this significantly reduced overall startup time. Please modify dh_gconf to invoke gconf-merge-tree as appropriate in the postinstall and postremoval scripts for all GNOME packages that use this debhelper.
