The only reason I still haven't removed GConf-dbus is that I lack
patches for the _documentation_, not the code.
We explain how to use SUGAR_PROFILE to run multiple instances of Sugar
in parallel, but not how to do the same using multiple OS-level user
accounts.

As soon as somebody updates the wiki with a good HowTo, I will kick
GConf-dbus out of sugar-jhbuild with *delight*. :)

In general any help with removing packages from sugar-jhbuild is
welcome. A good starting point would be to create backports of the very
latest Telepathy packages for the supported distros.
