[Bug 877019] Re: Thunderbird can't modify any gconf settings

 

Those errors are from gconf, and other applications have the same issue
too. In any case, those errors aren't fatal, and the only thing that
Thunderbird is using for gconf is proxy settings.

** Package changed: thunderbird (Ubuntu) => gconf (Ubuntu)

  I upgraded to 11.10 and wanted to give Thunderbird a try. My
  experience so far hasn't been great because the app is giving errors
  all over the place whenever it tries to change them.
