Description Kai Thomsen 2007-07-07 02:12:29 UTC
Description of problem:
The RPM package's scriptlets pass all installed *.schemas files to "gconftool-2 
--makefile-{un,}install-rule" instead of just the bluez-gnome one. Thus, 
uninstalling the package robs all GConf-using apps of their default 
preferences, and all (GUI) hell breaks loose.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.8-1.fc7

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install bluez-gnome-0.8-1.fc7, or make sure it's installed.
2. Remove the package: rpm -e bluez-gnome
  
Actual results:
bluez-gnome is uninstalled, but GNOME apps begin to behave abnormally.

Expected results:
Other software shouldn't be affected by the package removal.
