The path "/etc/gconf/2" is empty:
totale 8
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 1 mar 15.36 .
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 1 mar 15.36 ..
However, even if I remove it or remove "/etc/gconf" occurs the same problem.
I note if I remove the entire directory "usr/share/GConf/gsettings" then
the bug does not occur, but it does not seem to be related to a specific
file: just remains one file that the problem returns.

I guess the above line is causing the issue, which
results in "client->engine" being a null pointer [1] [2].
The interesting function for the addresses
seems to be get_writable_client [3].
It looks like upstream applied a patch to
exit the process immediately in the case of
addresses being a null pointer.
Therefore is just the question left why
get_writable_source_path/gconf_load_source_path
returns a null pointer...
Which leads to the question what the content
of this path might be:
/etc/gconf/2
Kind regards,
Bernhard
