editor: Fix search order of schema dirs (1.35 KB, patch)

Description Daiki Ueno 2012-10-17 08:14:52 UTC 
Under jhbuild shell, suppose XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to:

XDG_DATA_DIRS=/home/ueno/gnome/install/share:/usr/share

In this case, dconf-editor first looks for /home/ueno/gnome/install/share/glib-2.0/schemas and then /usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas.  As a result, the schemas in the first path are overridden by the ones in the latter.

I'm attaching a patch to traverse the path in reverse.  Perhaps it might be better not to override schemas already loaded (in SchemaList.load_directory()).
