Re: [GnomeMeeting-list] make install gnomemeeting as non-root

[Torquil Macdonald Sørensen <torquil frisurf no>]

Hello,

Unfortunately, when I try to run it, I get the error message:

Gnomemeeting got an invalid value for the GConf key 
"/apps/gnomemeeting/general/gconf_test_age"

When I press "OK", gnomemeeting unfortunately exits. Running 
'gnomemeeting --help' doesn't give any options that I think could 
influence this behaviour. There are no options in the "GNOME GConf 
Support" in the list of options.

Thanks,
TMS
