Re: gconf can not remove directory

Hi, Pierre,

I have already tried "sudo find / -name schema", but could not find
the directory I am looking for. What should I search instead?

For your reference, "sudo find / -name schema" find 3 directories, namely
/usr/share/GConf/schema
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/_xmlplus/schema
/usr/lib/go-openoffice/basis3.2/share/registry/schema
Despite the promising name of the first directory, it contains only
one file: evoldap.schema

Best Regards,
