GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 691597
Migrate from GConf to GSettings
Last modified: 2014-12-28 17:08:53 UTC
With GNOME 3.0 (april 2011), the GNOME Project decided to discontinue GConf. It won\'t be maintained anymore: bugs and security holes will not be fixed. Thus, Ekiga shouldn't depend on GConf any longer. Please, migrate to GSettings. GStettings is the official GNOME replacement for GConf, and the GNOME project is porting all of its applications to it: https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGoals/GSettingsMigration You will find the official from GConf to GSettings porting guide at: http://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/ch31.html
Yes, it is planned...
This is ongoing, see ds-gsettings branch at https://git.gnome.org/browse/ekiga. If you can and want to help, contact Damien as soon as possible.
This was merged in master a few days ago, so closing!
