Description Javier Jardón (IRC: jjardon) 2011-10-26 12:06:22 UTC 
Migrating from GConf to GSettings is an official GNOME goal now.

Comment 1 Christian Persch 2011-10-26 13:21:47 UTC 
Depends on gsettingslist.
Comment 2 Christian Kirbach 2013-02-03 21:31:28 UTC 
I started working on this.
For a starter, this is my first blunt attempt on converting the XML and adjusting the autofoo c***.
This likely has errors.

More to follow possibly soon.

autofoo stuff and XML conversion
Comment 4 Laurent Bigonville 2016-03-30 07:54:46 UTC 
Hi,

Any progress on this? I feel that this is the last GNOME component using gconf
Comment 5 Christian Persch 2016-04-15 16:43:13 UTC 
No progress. You can however simply configure using --with-platform=gtk-only to avoid the gconf dependency. (Stored gconf settings won't be migrated, however.)

Also, aisleriot is not a Gnome component, it's in gnome-world not core/apps/desktop.

GSettings port

Here is a patch that use the GSettings mechanism. No need to differentiate the environment and GSettings is a freedesktop.org component
Comment 7 Christian Persch 2016-04-24 11:23:32 UTC 
It'll be a bit before I can review this.

There's also been a previous, unfinished, attempt, on the wip/redesign branch, which has other stuff that'll still be needed so I'm wary of introducing conflicts...
Comment 8 Jeremy Bicha 2017-03-01 17:15:04 UTC 
Christian, what all does --with-platform=gtk-only do?

Are there any other side effects we should know about?
Comment 9 Christian Persch 2017-03-01 20:59:49 UTC 
There should be no other effects apart from making aisleriot use key files in ~/.config instead of gconf. (There's no settings migration from gconf, of course.)
Comment 10 Jeremy Bicha 2017-03-03 00:54:32 UTC 
Thanks, I've switched Ubuntu's aisleriot to --with-platform=gtk-only. It was the last thing keeping gconf in the default Ubuntu (Unity) and Ubuntu GNOME installs.
Comment 11 Jeremy Bicha 2017-03-03 00:55:27 UTC 
Debian stretch is getting gconf out of the default GNOME install by no longer installing aisleriot.
