Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

Same problem here, i believe is a problem of the new version of gconf (gconf-2.26.0-2), i'm looking at the PKGBUILD and at the install file to find the problem.

p.s. son italiano anche io ^^

Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

The problem is located on the file usr/sbin/gconfpkg, is a bash script file, there's a segmentation fault error, maybe for an incorret call to gconftool-2

Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

I've read the bug report. So i guess that this bug will affect italian users only.

Thanks for the workaround.

Grazie Firetux

After the bugfix I still got problems with epiphany and other packages, maybe i'm doing something wrong.

Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

make sure to set Locale="en" each time you try an update.
Only in this way i can prevent the error.

Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

Ok i've solved like the problem like this:
  -Update with yaourt or pacman gconf
  -Update with yaourt or pacman the entire gnome installation (errors will occour)
  -Fix the schema db with the script posted by Jan de Groot:

export LANG=C
export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=`/usr/bin/gconftool-2 --get-default-source`
for i in /usr/share/gconf/schemas/*.schemas; do
/usr/bin/gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule $i
done

Re: libgnome do not install (gconfpkg line 18 error)

Hello, i still have problem with that one. Bug has 'closed' status on http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/14107
I did change my locale var to pl_PL.utf8 AND run that script to rebulid gconf database, but after pacman -S gnome gnome-extra i still get several segmentation fault errors. I switched to kde for now, but i still want to use some gnome apps, or login into gnome session.

here's my rc.conf
