Package: libgconf-2-4
Version: 3.2.5-1+build1
Severity: normal
File: libgconf

Every time I start an application linked with gconf, I get this kind of message :

(emacs:27931): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:
/usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message
GConf Error: No D-BUS daemon running


(emacs:27931): GConf-WARNING **: Client failed to connect to the D-BUS daemon:
/usr/bin/dbus-launch terminated abnormally without any error message


This is very annoying as it scramble the terminal with garbage
messages, completely non informative.

It is *not* an error that dbus is not running when using a ssh -X terminal.
