People using Gnome from CVS (or Ubuntu Dapper) would not find their custom dictionary sources anymore. But, hey: things from HEAD break sometimes. ;-) Anyway, as I said, the file that is causing the name clash is "stale", and has been so since Gnome 2.0; I finally found the last working code using a file for saving preferences: it's tagged for gnome-utils 1.4, and it was created by GnomeConfig, before the preferences handling was re-written to use GConf; after that, no code mentions such file. So we can safely assume that we can delete the file - unless someone has created a file called "gnome-dictionary" inside $HOME/.gnome2; hence the conservative approach. I could rename the data directory to something like "gnome-dictionary-2.0", but think of this as a way to sanitize the .gnome2 directory. :-) Ciao, Emmanuele. -- Emmanuele Bassi - <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Log: http://log.emmanuelebassi.net _______________________________________________ gnome-i18n mailing list gnome-i18n@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-i18n
