I'm not clear on what you mean by a)? You mean if we can't write to
the usual default location we fall back to ~/.gconf?
It seems like a very not-general solution; I'm also worried for
example about hiding error messages when someone _intended_ to install
to the regular location.
But it might be worth it to make things work without a lot of fooling
around, I don't know.
