Description-en: GNOME configuration database system (D-Bus service)
GConf is a configuration database system for storing application
preferences. It supports default or mandatory settings set by the
administrator, and changes to the database are instantly applied to all
running applications. It is written for the GNOME desktop but doesn't
require it.
.
This package provides the D-Bus enabled daemon that is used internally
by the GConf library to access configuration data.
.
This package is for legacy applications and no longer used by GNOME.
