 I installed fedora 20 not long ago, and now I'm customizing the
installation by adding programs not included by default in the installation.

....at the same time that I installed dconf-editor, I also installed "Tweak
Tool" and "menulibre"; this fact can be relevant?

 As I said, the old installation of dconf-Edit has not presented problems.
While I did it, I just received the message to confirm the datas ...
unfortunately I have not paid much attention to contents of those data.

 I'll explain what I can think about can be problematic:
After installing cdonf-Edit I was not been able to use it because all the
menu options were disabled.
I read that this maybe he could depend by the permissions of the file
"user" that was in the folder / opt / dconf/user ... (? I think it was the
location ..)

 This trial did no give results because: “after changing the permissions it
returned to its original state”
and because of this* strange phenomenon* I wrote the first email.

 In the meantime, however, I continued to do tries and I found that the
application could be affected by bugs:

 *Bug 975521* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=975521> - unable
to change settings using dconf

*Bug 956306* <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=956306> - gnome
shell freezes when window is present from su session

In addition, I also found a version more 'updated dconf-Edit

So I decided to reinstall dconf -Edit using the more  recent version


 What I can check still on the computer to understand the problem?


Thank you for your time

Regards

Angelo
