Comment 1 Dmitriy Tantsur 2010-02-03 11:32:14 UTC

Still valid for gconf-editor 2.28.0.

Comment 2 André Klapper 2018-07-01 08:39:53 UTC

gconf-editor is not under active development anymore and has not seen code changes for six years. 
Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gconf-editor/commits/master

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect reality. Please feel free to reopen this ticket (or rather transfer the project to GNOME Gitlab, as GNOME Bugzilla is deprecated) if anyone takes the responsibility for active development again.
