  [Impact]

  As you can see, this new version fixes a few bugs (some are more annoying than other) and it also fixes two crashes.
  The most important bug here is detailed on LP: #1244997 : on some non-GNOME DE (e.g. KDE), '~/.config/gtk-3.0' dir is not available: it is unreadable or not created and this problem causes a crash.

  [Test Case]

  On a fresh installation of KUbuntu (or remove/rename/change owner/change rights/... of this dir: '~/.config/gtk-3.0'):
  * Install Cairo-Dock 3.3.1 (from Ubuntu repos)
  * Launch it (with the default theme)
  * It crashes
  * Install the 3.3.2 version (e.g by adding the official ppa: ppa:cairo-dock-team/ppa and update the system)
  * Re-launch the dock
  * no more crashes.

  [Regression Potential]

  This new version (3.3.2) has been released a few weeks ago
  (2013-10-29). It is used by many people (on 2013-11-11, ~27.700 users
  have downloaded this version from our ppa according to the stats given
  by Launchpad) and it seems there is no regression due to this version.
