Many years ago we've had to SIGHUP gconfd-2 at the end of the scriptlets. Later on, a "reload" patch applied to gconftool has made that unnecessary: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=GConf2.git;a=tree;h=e3e569b49588b8c9d1e41081470b28fbf6641ed8;hb=58752f42394a5d97d30a3ac65f42db1eaa7daf46 That patch has been dropped with the upgrade from GConf 2.32.x to 3.1.3 in 2011. It has not been merged either, possibly because the code uses a different method to signal the daemon. What I can reproduce with F-16 is that installing the package does not make available the schemas unless I SIGHUP gconfd-2 manually (or restart it). -- Fedora release 16 (Verne) - Linux 3.2.7-1.fc16.x86_64 loadavg: 0.14 0.22 0.16 -- packaging mailing list packaging@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/packaging
