Description Stanislav Brabec 2008-03-12 17:11:22 UTC 
Many vendors create default configuration, which consists of four system path elements:

- Keys defined in schemas
- Defaults defined by vendor
- Defaults defined by system administrator
- Mandatory defined by system administrator

It allows to provide vendor branding and make "Keys defined in schemas" unchanged.

Attached patch allows to set vendor defaults using gconf-editor.

In the current version, GUI for vendor defaults is equal to system defaults.

GConf has been deprecated since 2011.
Hence GConf-Editor is not under active development anymore. Its codebase has been archived: https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gconf-editor/commits/master

GConf's successors are dconf and gsettings. dconf-editor exists.

Closing this report as WONTFIX as part of Bugzilla Housekeeping to reflect
reality. Feel free to open a task in GNOME Gitlab if the issue described in
this task still applies to dconf-editor (not: gconf-editor). Thanks!
