Bug#369858: gnome-panel messes with the /etc gconf source

Package: gnome-panel
Severity: serious

We have the following in the gnome-panel-data postinst:
gconftool-2 --direct --config-source=${GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE} --load
${SCHEMA_LOCATION}/panel-default-setup.entries >/dev/null

This messes with the default gconf source, overriding system
administrator changes and violating the FHS.

It should be replaced by a file handled by update-gconf-defaults. I'll
dig into it later if no one else does, but the RC bug should remain open
until this is fixed.
