Thanks for your bug and patch. By curiosity, are you still hacking on a GNOME 1 application?

No :)

But according to `man aclocal' (and my own experience):
"""
At startup, aclocal scans all the .m4 files it can find, looking for macro definitions.
"""
This also means that it spits out these warnings =)

you can probably safely remove libgconf-dev ;) The fix is easy, if anybody wants to upload it feel free. Would be better to send it to Debian so we don't create an extra divergence for it though and to sync the package when they apply it (not sure if anybody is still maintaining gconf1)
