While playing with the gconf editor, I noticed there were old values not used (e.g. file-views instead of file_views, accesibility instead of accessibility (note the typos)). I just found where they come from: in /etc/gconf/schemas/ there are leftovers from dpkg. examples:
desktop_gnome_peripherals_keyboard.schemas desktop_gnome_peripherals_keyboard.schemas.dpkg-old desktop_gnome_peripherals_mouse.schemas desktop_gnome_peripherals_mouse.schemas.dpkg-old plus, there were the corresponding directories: /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/desktop/gnome/accesibility and /etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults/desktop/gnome/file-views/ I removed them by hand, but I'm not sure there aren't some more obsolete ones lying around. Is there a mean to get rid of the obsolete/wrong entries in gconf trees ? Or is it condemned to become more & more cluttered as time passes, needed a periodic delete-and-regenerate-from-scratch (a bit like the windows registry) ?
