It's not only GConf but also other things like gnome-keyring, libsoup,
or gnome-disk-utility with it's dependeny on nautilus and many more
things. The latter could be avoided with smarter packaging however.

As long as GNOME developers hardcode things like gnome-terminal or
gnome-mount in lowlevel stuff like GIO, there will always be people who
want to fork from that.

Previous versions relied on GConf2 and I already asked if you or David
have any plans to bring this dependency back.
