 These are [wiki:WebKitGTK/Chroot some tips] regarding the usage of a chroot as working environment.
+
+=== Persistent GSettings ===
+
+Sometimes you may get a warning from the GTK+ applications about !GSettings like this:
+{{{
+GLib-GIO-Message: Using the 'memory' GSettings backend.  Your settings will not be saved or shared with other applications.
+}}}
+
+When working inside the `jhbuild` environment, you may need to run a session D-Bus daemon in it and make sure that the `dconf` module is built:
+{{{
+#!sh
+# Make sure dconf is built and enter the jhbuild environment
+./Tools/jhbuild/jhbuild-wrapper --gtk build dconf
+./Tools/jhbuild/jhbuild-wrapper --gtk shell
+# Launch a D-Bus instance inside the environment
+eval "$(dbus-launch --sh-syntax)"
+#
+# ...do some work testing/work now...
+#
+# Kill the D-Bus daemon inside jhbuild environment before exiting
+kill $DBUS_SESSION_BUS_PID
+exit
+}}}
