Package: libgconf-2-4 Version: 3.2.5-1 Severity: important Tags: upstream wontfix
GConf was part of GNOME 2, and was deprecated in 2010 during the transition to GNOME 3. It should not be used in new code, and old code should be migrated away from it. The replacement is in two parts. GSettings is an abstract interface in GLib, and is used by applications to interact with settings. The actual settings storage is somewhere appropriate for the operating system, which in our case is nearly always dconf, a concrete implementation of a data storage service for generic Unix platforms such as Linux (on Windows, GSettings stores settings in the Windows registry instead, while on macOS, GSettings stores settings in the NSUserDefaults).
