I added parameter "--disable-gconf" to the configure script
invocation. This was the quickest change for having Buildbots build
AOO41X and AOO42X.  I did not touch the AOO code... only the
Buildbots' settings.

If we want GConf support in the Buildbots builds (or in any builds on
Ubuntu 24.04, etc.), we should treat GConf as an external dependency
like dmake: if it is not present, download and compile it.

Due to GConf being deprecated, I suggest we abandon it in AOO42X.

I hope I could explain myself clearly.
