The chances of libgconf being rewritten to use GDBus any time soon seem slim - and the chances of getting this kind of change into wheezy seems equally slim. Has anything happened on this bug since the last comment in November?
Overall, what's the status of this bug? banshee itself has had numerous changes in experimental, including one change which appears to be related to this bug: banshee (2.3.1-1) experimental; urgency=low ... - bgo#659841: GnomeBackend: Be more robust against GConf failures (LP: #854845) ... and LP: #854845 is titled: Banshee.exe crashes a lot What are the chances of this patch being isolated from the banshee sources and introduced as an limited scope patch for unstable which can then migrate into wheezy? The git repository linked from the Debian PTS hasn't had any changes for 7 months.: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-cli-apps/packages/banshee.git;a=log last change Mon, 4 Jun 2012 18:01:39 +0000 -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
