Re: gconf can not remove directory

Two utilities that help you find things are locate and find
Read about them by doing "man find" or "man locate"

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I guess deleting the directory would be OK
as long as I know where the directory is. I mistyped /schemas/... into
/schema/.... And I can not find it in my ~/.gconf directory, and
neither in /root/.gconf. Where should I look now?

Thank you for your kind attention.

Best Regards,

Hi, ive never used gconf but can't you just use rm?
(sudo rm -r /path/to/directory)

Hi,

I created a wrong directory for my own application in gconf by a typo.
When I try to remove it by gconf_engine_remove_dir, I got the GError
stating: "Failed: Remove directory operation is no longer supported,
just remove all the values in the directory."

Should I reinstall the whole system to get rid of the directory?
Living with it is simply not an option  for me. Any suggestions?

Best Regards,
