Comment 8 Thomas Andersen 2008-08-07 00:09:12 UTC

sudoku's gconf_wrapper.py breaks when gconf is in read-only. It is also copy/pasted code from 2002 and we should probably just move to use the config.py from chess.

Comment 24 palfrey 2008-11-17 14:04:28 UTC

Fixes to this may also fix Bug 561207, as that has the effective same end stacktrace (although different cause, so specific checks here for read-only Gconf sources wouldn't fix that).

Should be fixed now as we just switched to GSettings (bug 546694)

Comment 69 Robert Ancell 2012-01-11 14:47:38 UTC

Gsettings bug is actually bug 667321
