Description Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2012-03-17 16:19:10 UTC 
'dconf update' lets you compile keyfiles into dconf databases in a very specific way.  Would be nice if we had the ability to do this in a more generic way (ie: compile arbitrary keyfile into arbitrary database file).

dconf update: change error handling

Instead of just ignoring errors when trying to parse keyfiles in a .d
directory, fail the compile outright.  'dconf update' will print the
error and attempt to move on to the next .d directory in line.

Add some more padding to 'dconf help' output to accomodate coming
additions.

dconf(1): add 'dconf compile' command

This allows manually compiling dconf databases outside of /etc.  This is meant
to be used from the build system of projects that want to install dconf
databases (like gdm) to easily build the database in-tree.
