Workaround, edit post install file /var/sadm/pkg/CSWgnucashcommon/install/preremove and remove the "|| Error ..."

The fault one or more of:

+ with CSWgconf2 - file a complimentary issue, it shouldn't core dump whatever.

+ /opt/csw/etc/gconf/schemas/apps_gnucash_dialog_business_common.schemas

+ The post install that doesn't tolerate failure of gconf2, note also gconf2 is not a depend and should be.

this means that gconftool-2 has a bug: exits with non zero value on success !?
Alright for the workaround but the bug relates to the package containing gconftool-2, isn't it?

It dumps core and exits non zero.

This is assigned to me but it's not my project.

Besides, with the current GTK stack that OpenCSW offers I cannot provide a newer version.

The problem is that I can't remove gnucash when the sub program crashes, not that it crashes (that's a bug but not this one), this is fixable within gnucash.
