I guess gconf is going to be unmaintained and deprecated for GNOME. It
is already largely unmaintained AFAIK. So use gconf at your own risk, or
switch to dconf to be sure you are using maintained code that will get
fixes.

So this apply at least to all GNOME desktop applications, but really
should be followed by any app using gconf IMO.
