+Upstream-Status: Pending
+
+In some circumstances, gconf isn't able to save configurations
+because ~/.config folder aka root_dir doesn't exist.
+This issue was not seen before because ~/.config directory is shared
+between several packages and one of those packages usually creates it
+by the time gconf wants to use it.
+
+This patch makes sure that gconf creates the .config directory if it
+doesn't exist, along with the gconf directory inside it.
