Having this tool in GLib is a bad idea for a number of reasons:
- experience has shown that the simple file format was a bad idea
- the tool is currently implemented with a hack that would require a
dependency inversion to solve (the tool needs to depend on Python
GVariant bindings)
- the tool itself is unmaintained
It will be moved to the GConf git repository so people can continue to
use it for the purpose of converting GConf schemas.

<para><command>glib-compile-schemas</command> compiles all the GSettings XML
|

schema files in <replaceable>directory</replaceable> into a binary file
|
|
with the name <filename>gschemas.compiled</filename> that can be used
|
|
by <link linkend="GSettings"><type>GSettings</type></link>. The XML schema
|
|
files must have the filename extension <filename>.gschema.xml</filename>.

At runtime, GSettings looks for schemas in the
|
|
<filename>glib-2.0/schemas</filename> subdirectories of all directories
|
|
specified in the <envar>XDG_DATA_DIRS</envar> environment variable. The
|
|
usual location to install schema files is
|
|
<filename>/usr/share/glib-2.0/schemas</filename>.
