> Do not move etc/opt/gnome/gconf/gconf.xml.schemas to
etc/gconf/gconf.xml.schemas. Instead, include compatibility etc/opt/gnome
search paths in /etc/gconf/2/path.

But standard old-style scriptlets install to the default location. On upgrade
of any /opt/gnome package, we'll have two set of keys.

> Do not call gconftool-rebuild.

The best solution for future, but after upgrade protection from SLED10 expires
(to never keep orphans).

> Re-add /etc/opt/gnome/gconf/schemas to the directories processed by
gconftool-rebuild.

Yes, it seems to be acceptable.

> Another theoretical option is moving even the .schemas files from
/etc/opt/gnome/gconf/schemas to /etc/gconf/schemas, but this contradicts
packaging principles (situation on disk should be == situation in rpmdb).

No chance. It will either break fs<->rpmdb consistency (no symlink), or rpm
will break it totally (symlink to /etc will confuse rpm)
