+        The GConf (<filename>gconf</filename>) class provides common
+        functionality for recipes that need to install GConf schemas.
+        The schemas will be put into a separate package
+        (<filename>${</filename><link linkend='var-PN'><filename>PN</filename></link><filename>}-gconf</filename>)
+        that is created automatically when this class is inherited.
+        This package uses the appropriate post-installation and post-remove
+        (postinst/postrm) scriptlets to register and unregister the schemas
+        in the target image.
