Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I suspect this has to do with some non-ascii characters in the output for gconftool-2, which aren't correctly handled by gconf_resource. However I was unable to reproduce this on my local system, even after setting my locale and language to the same ones you have (french). Non-english locales usually make encoding problems pop up, and we're very interested in getting these worked out.
Could you please run the following command in a terminal:
and then attach the resulting /tmp/gconf.txt file to this report? This will let me see where the problem is, and fix gconf_resource to handle this particular case (and hopefully any others) correctly.
Thanks!
I'm setting as incomplete while you attach the file, and importance: high as any internationalization-related problems are bound to affect a large number of people.
