Now, as the root user: make install Command Explanations --sysconfdir=&gnome-etc-dir;: This parameter causes the GConf-2 configuration database to be built in &gnome-etc-dir; instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/etc. This installation controls all future installations of GConf-2 schemas. If you change the location (which includes eliminating this parameter), it must be consistent for every subsequent package installation that updates the GConf-2 configuration database. --libexecdir=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0)/lib/GConf: This parameter causes the libexec files to be installed in the preferred location of $GNOME_PREFIX/lib/GConf instead of $GNOME_PREFIX/libexec.
