The "wip/gsettings" branch has been merged to master for Evolution
3.3.3. This branch migrates most of our simple GConf keys (strings /
integers / booleans) to GSettings. Huge thanks to Rodrigo Moya for his
work on this!
After installing the updated code (which includes a .convert file), I
believe you can manually run "gsettings-data-convert" to migrate your
data from GConf to GSettings. At least according to the documentation;
I've not tried it myself yet. Otherwise Evolution will start with most
settings reset to defaults. Normally "gsettings-data-convert" gets run
as an auto-start program when you log into your desktop session, but I
figure we probably all have our own local Evolution installs.
GSettings is not very forgiving of typos and likes to abort in lieu of
polluting its API with GErrors. I think I tracked down all the typos
already, but be on the lookout in Evolution's more remote corners.
