GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 622231
Get rid of bonobo dependency: GConf -> GSettings
Last modified: 2017-07-31 12:46:39 UTC
1) Write gsettings bindings for Mono 2) Write a gsettings prefs backend using the bindings from (1) 3) Write migration code from gconf->gsettings 4) At configure time, prefer gsettings (when available) over gconf Patches very welcome, especially for step (1). If the release team feels very strongly about doing this by 3.0 and I don't have time to do it and no patches come, I'll just switch to using the XML prefs backend we use on Windows and Mac. I'd rather not waste time on migrating gconf->xml->gsettings, though.
I should note that unless the whole desktop migrates from GConf, we're still going to need it to read some desktop-wide keys (font size preferences, etc).
See the gsettings-desktop-schemas package. If anything is missing, please let us know.
The Tomboy team has moved from GNOME Bugzilla to GitHub for bug reports and feature requests: https://github.com/tomboy-notes/tomboy/issues/ Closing this report as NOTGNOME as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping (bug 781054) to keep tasks in one place. Please feel free to transfer this task to GitHub if this task is still valid in a recent Tomboy version. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
