Hi Havoc, Thanks for the response. Please find attached a quickly written C code for the same. I tried the test with some cases, for e.g.: a.out junk_string_not_in_path a.out valid_string_in_path For the first one the output is: "Acquired engine handle using gconf_engine_get_for_address.." "Could not get engine using gconf_engine_get_local.." The second case succeeds throughout. Hope this is what you were looking for. The Gconf package I have is gconf2-2.2.1-85. I tried this on both Suse 9, Redhat 9.

Would be glad if someone can clarify this. > It should probably be the same. Easiest way to resolve this is to send along a small compilable test case showing the problem.
