Package: gconf2
Version: 2.10.1-5
Hello,
I think the new packaging of gconf2 is lacking the libraries
in /usr/lib/GConf/2. This is introduced somewhere between 2.10.1-2 and
2.10.1-5. This caused some problems on my system while upgrading
libgsf-gnome-1:
No such file `/usr/lib/GConf/2/libgconfbackend-xml.so'
Failed to load source "xml::/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults": Failed: Cou=
ldn't locate backend module for `xml::/etc/gconf/gconf.xml.defaults'
GConf-ERROR **: file gconftool.c: line 828 (main): assertion failed: (e=
rr =3D=3D NULL)
aborting...
/var/lib/dpkg/info/libgsf-gnome-1.postinst: line 7: 10614 Aborted =
HOME=3D/root GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=3D`gconftool-2 --get-default-so=
urce` gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule $SCHEMA_LOCATION/$SCHEMA >/dev/nu=
ll
dpkg: error processing libgsf-gnome-1 (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 134
This caused libgsf-gnome-1 to fail installing, which rendered a lot of
gnome applications unusable, since they could not load their
configuration from gconf. Looking at the package contents, gconf2
version 2.10.1-2 contains
/usr/lib/GConf/2/libgconfbackend-xml.so
which are nowhere in any of the gconf2 packages of 2.10.1-5. However,
libgconf2-4 version 2.10.1-5 contains=20
/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/2/libgconfbackend-xml.so
I created a symlink
/usr/lib/GConf/2 -> /usr/lib/libgconf2-4/2/
which allowed me to upgrade libgsf-gnome-1.
Perhaps this symlink should be in one of the gconf2 packages?
After upgrading libgsf-gnome-1, that package can be reinstalled again
without the symlink present, so this problem may be already be resolved.
Perhaps it can still create problems while upgrading though (i.e. etch
-> sid at the moment)?
If non of the above is still considered a problem, this report might be
helpful for anyone with a similar upgrade-problem.
For the record, I was upgrading libgsf-gnome-1 as follows:
2005-09-15 22:20:22 upgrade libgsf-1 1.12.2-1 1.12.3-3
according my dpkg.log.
HTH,
Remco Schaar
