Sugar only kept GConf compatibility for upgrades from older versions of Sugar that did not use Gio.Settings. That transition was long ago. We must now remove this compatibility support.
port Browse, Read and Write activities from GConf to Gio.Settings, remove GConf from Sugar, Sugar Toolkit, and Browse, Read and Write activities, remove GConf from any other activities. Most issues have not been created, as it is a waste of time to do so. As of 2019-11-23 there are 48 matches for the code pattern "import gconf" in org:sugarlabs.
Your task is to port one Sugar activity.
