GConf is a configuration database system, functionally similar to the
|
|
|
|
|
Windows registry but lots better. :-) It's being written for the GNOME
|
|
|
|
|
desktop but does not require GNOME; configure should notice if GNOME
|
|
|
|
|
is not installed and compile the basic GConf library anyway.

GConf does require glib, ORBit, libxml, and the popt option parsing
|
|
|
|
|
library. XML will be optional in the future if someone writes another
|
|
|
|
|
storage backend.
