I can confirm that the new package does prevent settings in dconf from propagating into gconf on a dconf update after the package is installed and the user is logged out and back in. I haven't used the new package long enough to identify if there are any regressions, but it does seem to fix this

I'm pretty new to dconf, so I'm making some assumptions which may be incorrect. When dconf update is run as root, that only updates settings which are either mandatory or defaults system-wide. Neither of those changes should result in a change in the users home directory, and if a user wasn't

This also exposes something else, which might be better as a separate bug. wm-schemas.convert tries to convert metacity keybindings from dconf to gconf. Unfortunately the types are different, so anything accepted by dconf probably won't actually work once it's written to gconf. This was exposed

Hi, I have prepared and tested a small patch that fixes this issue. What the patch does is not update any keys when dconf emits the everything changed signal. To do this, it connects to the event_change signal and checks if the number of keys is 0, and returns TRUE in that case to prevent the

Functionally, the patch looks pretty good to me. Thanks for the attention to detail with respect to the signal disconnection. One small detail is that the function you introduce should be marked 'static' (since it is not used outside of the current file). Otherwise, everything else looks fine.

This is my take on the issue from what I spoke with dsert earlier today: There's a signal that dconf update emits when there are changes, so that monitoring stuff can find out about it. This plugin is one of the monitoring stuff. The plugin is supposed to sync up settings from dconf to gconf
