Please stop the madness. There's already a package which wants to modify the path based on other things. If we go on this way, the gconf configuration files will become a complete mess. Post-sarge, we will have to re-think the path file to bear with the system defaults moving to /var/lib. This will be the time to deal with such packages. I think the best way is to split it into a /etc/gconf/path.d directory, where packages can add their files. -- .''`.
