GSETTINGS-DATA-CON(1) User Commands GSETTINGS-DATA-CON(1) NAME gsettings-data-convert - GConf to GSettings data migration SYNOPSIS gsettings-data-convert [option...] DESCRIPTION gsettings-data-convert reads values out of the users GConf database and stores them in GSettings. The information about the mapping from GConf keys to GSettings keys is taken from files in /usr/share/GConf/gsettings. Each file in that directory is read as a key file, with sections for each GSettings schema that is be- ing converted. The entries in each section map GSettings keys to paths in the GConf database. Currently, gsettings-data-convert supports all basic GConf types as well as lists of strings and lists of integers. A simple example might look like this: [org.gnome.fonts] antialiasing = /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/antialiasing dpi = /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/dpi hinting = /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/hinting rgba_order = /desktop/gnome/font_rendering/rgba_order If the GSettings schema does not have a fixed path, you must specify the path in the group name, separated by a colon character: [org.gnome.fonts:/desktop/gnome/font-rendering/] gsettings-data-convert keeps a list of the key files it has already con- verted, so it is safe to run it repeatedly to handle newly appeared key files. The expected use of this utility is to make each application install a key file for the GConf keys that it wants to be migrated, and run gset- tings-data-convert every time a user logs in. Options -h, --help Print help and exit --dry-run Do not make any changes, just report what would be done --verbose Show verbose messages SEE ALSO gsettings-schema-convert(1) is a related command that helps with the con- version of schemas from GConf to GSettings.
