It's not library that I am thinking about. ;-) Just that gconf settings when applications install in etc/gconf/* and storage in ~/.gconf*. Do we want gconf settings to be into one for linux-* and native? Or not? Sometime it can causes rare problem like old linux-gnome-volume-manager (non-exist, just example) and new gnome-volume-manager for not able to share ~/.gconf*. >> I guess I could try to fetch a fedora package and try. >> I am just not sure how to install it properly, never worked on ports >> for Linux binaries before. > > Have a look at the linux-jpeg or linux-glib ports. It's not very hard Also, be sure to check in our gconf2 and bsd.gnome.mk (GCONF_SCHEMAS) for how our ports handle with gconf stuff.
