"Cannot find default values" dialog always appearing

This is an info post, not a request for assistance.

GnuCash 2.2.5 r17141M, built from source tarball from
http://www.gnucash.org/pub/gnucash/sources/stable/ ,
with OFX enabled, but not online banking,
running on Ubuntu 7.10 under Gnome.

EVERY TIME I started GnuCash, I'd get an error message stating that it
"Cannot find default values" and offered to re-run setup. I'd accept the
defaults and click through the dialogs and it would be fine.

I Googled around and found Gnome bug 425060, filed just over a year ago.
Andrew Schulman posted a workaround here:

http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=425060#c4

This worked to solve my problem, but it should be known that the first
line of the posted script reads as follows on my system:

for ff in /usr/local/etc/gconf/schemas/*gnucash* ;
