Comment 1 Rob Bradford 2011-08-30 22:49:50 UTC
I don't understand how you can reach gconf-value.c line 734 with src == NULL given that line 731 contains g_return_val_if_fail(src != NULL, NULL);

Unless you were building with --disable-debug which will then add "-DG_DISABLE_CHECKS=1 -DG_DISABLE_ASSERT=1" to the CFLAGS.

But poking around in the Ubuntu build system doesn't show that happening...(at least it's not in the build logs)
Comment 2 André Klapper 2018-08-17 13:54:57 UTC
GConf has been deprecated since 2011.

GConf is not under active development anymore. Its codebase has been archived:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Archive/gconf/commits/master

dconf and gsettings are its successors. See https://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/ch34.html and https://developer.gnome.org/GSettings/ for porting info.

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 a recent + supported version of dconf/gsettings. Thanks!
