gconftool in Makefile.am

[Jens Finke <jens eknif de>]

Hi,

in the Makefile.am in top srcdir, there are the following lines:

install-data-local:
        GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=$(GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE) gconftool \
--makefile-install-rule $(top_srcdir)/$(schema_DATA)

What is the purpose of this command? Isn't it sufficient to copy the
schema file to $(sysconfdir)/gconf/schemas? The problem with this is, that
it only works if you install as root, which you normally don't do when
building rpms. Do we really need this?
