Hm, ScriptletSnippets advices to use -HUP; is -TERM instead of it intentional?
The next time an application uses GConf, the daemon is automatically respawned anyway, right?
I don't know, that's why I asked ;)
So there should be no difference between -HUP and -TERM.
Actually, if the behaviour you described is how it works, -TERM may be a better idea than -HUP performance-wise - no need to repeatedly re-read things eg. during a rpm transaction which installs many packages that have something to do with GConf.
