Did you rerun configure after updating?  What arguments?
After updating, I do a make distclean, autogen.sh, and a configure.
./configure --enable-opt-style-install --prefix=/opt/gnucash-svn$rev --enable-debug --enable-error-on-warning --enable-compile-warnings

The problem, which you mentioned in bugzilla, is that you're building a
package and then installing that package instead of installing directly
from source.  The gconf default key values aren't being written to your
temporary destination directory and thus aren't included in the package.
As far as I can tell that actually turns out to be right answer for
these default values.  Other applications that use gconf (c.f.
evolution, evince, etc) only include the schemas in the package and then
install the default key values as part of the rpm post-install script.


In my packaging of gnucash-1.9.0

This is what I put in my %post

export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=`gconftool-2 --get-default-source`
gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule \
  %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/apps_gnucash*.schemas > /dev/null || :
killall -HUP gconfd-2 ||

That solved that problem of always being prompted for the default values on every start.

(I ripped it off from the gnome-power-manager fwiw.) but this works for me.

The %preun is

if [ "$1" -eq 0 ]; then
    #deleting the schema on package removal
    export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=`gconftool-2 --get-default-source`
    gconftool-2 --makefile-uninstall-rule \
      %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/apps_gnucash*.schemas > /dev/null || :
    killall -HUP gconfd-2 || :
fi

I'll have to go look at the build systems for one of these applications
and see if I can figure out how to fix gnucash.
