--- Comment #5 from Roman Bysh rb03884@gmail.com 2010-06-01 13:43:42 UTC --- I noticed the same problem with openSUSE 11.2 GM release. It was fixed in openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 7, but was broken again for the final release.
Can this relate to gconf2-branding-openSUSE ?

It might be safer, indeed.
The issue is that it's kind of hacky to split gconf2-branding-openSUSE based on the Requires in there :/

Workaround added for 11.3 too.

Maybe then you could have a separate package for these settings, or even include them directly with the gconf package? The current gconf package effectively provides defaults that do not work.

That's really a branding thing: changing the default there to use firefox would not work either if firefox is not installed -- and that's really a branding decision.
