Odd. Sounds as if it's too late to examine the problem, which isn't
documented in that thread. The Python source code performs a GConf
settings check and tries to install the schemas file on error condition.
Funny stuff, but shouldn't be difficult to debug.

It seems I'm not up-to-date with regard to the %pre and %post scriptlets
for GConf: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:ScriptletSnippets#GConf

Why does %post uninstall the new .schemas file? Shouldn't it use the
old copy from the previous package release that was saved in %pre in
/var/lib/rpm-state/gconf?

$ rpm --eval %gconf_schema_upgrade

for schema in  ; do 
    if test -f /var/lib/rpm-state/gconf/"$schema".schemas ; then 
        cmp --quiet /etc/gconf/schemas/"$schema".schemas
/var/lib/rpm-state/gconf/"$schema".schemas 
        if test $? != 0; then
            
        if test -f /etc/gconf/schemas/"$schema".schemas ; then 
            export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=`gconftool-2 --get-default-source` 
            gconftool-2 --makefile-uninstall-rule
/etc/gconf/schemas/"$schema".schemas > /dev/null || :

            export GCONF_CONFIG_SOURCE=`gconftool-2 --get-default-source` 
            gconftool-2 --makefile-install-rule
/etc/gconf/schemas/"$schema".schemas > /dev/null || : 
        fi 
        rm -f /var/lib/rpm-state/gconf/"$schema".schemas 
    else

What I mean is the following. Why isn't it done like that?
