This is exactly what I've been working on.

If you're looking for an adventure:

https://edge.launchpad.net/~sbalneav/+archive/ppa

has my ppa, with sabayon 2.25-0.0ubuntu8.  Give it a try, if you'd like.

I think I might have answered my previous post.  Sabayon wants to write info to
$HOME/.gconf.xml.defaults, but Ubuntu's default for gconf is to look in
$HOME/.gconf.path.defaults

I'll be working on more patches...
