Bug Description

I've just upgraded to edgy. On first start, the Ekiga setup wizard ran, even though I have already set up Ekiga (before the upgrade). Cancelling it left my current settings untouched (which is what I wanted); why did it run at all?

This just happened to me after upgrading a system to Feisty. My settings appear to be intact, but the setup wizard runs during login (ekiga is in my session).

This also happens in Gutsy 7.10.
I didn't solved it with completely but I can use my previous settings.

 Please leave the X session or leave all Gnome applications and go to console as user.
gconftool-2 --shutdown
Restore backup all file that here in ".gconf/apps/ekiga" .
startx
and start ekiga
Will be appear the window of configuration assistant but you need to cancel it EVERYTIME then you start Ekiga.
After cancel of configuration assistant you can use your old configurations.

Ekiga has a command line "ekiga-config-tool" that you can use for delete all personal data but nothing about how to upgrade or migrate ekiga settings.

It also happens in Hardy 8.04. I've tried gconf-editor (from package gconf-editor) but it doesn't have any options for change that behavior of the ekiga setup wizard.
