### `dconf-update-service`

The `dconf-update-service` submodule creates a systemd unit to automatically update changes you make to [dconf](https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/dconf) in your custom image. For an example of a dconf keyfile, see the [dconf custom defaults documentation](https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/dconf-custom-defaults.html.en).

**Unlike the `gschema-overrides` module, dconf keyfiles are not checked at compile time**

Take a note that this documentation is for local-users, not for custom image maintainers. But it serves as a good example of what dconf file looks like.
Ignore the advice about creating the `user` profile, as it's already present & just place dconfs in `/etc/dconf/db/distro.d/`, not in `local.d` folder ([Thinking like a distribution](https://blue-build.org/learn/mindset/) mindset).
