Ensure GDM effective dconf policy matches the policy keyfiles
gdm-dconf-database-current · RHEL ≥ 8 · 3 impls
Description
The GNOME dconf database must be compiled from the current policy keyfiles so that the effective policy matches the configured policy.
Rationale
If the dconf database is not regenerated after policy keyfiles are updated, the effective policy in use may not match the intended security configuration. Running dconf update ensures all policy settings take effect immediately.
