this is because of:
%config %{_sysconfdir}/gconf/schemas/*.schemas

I checked other packages and it seems they are not marking with
%config the files in /etc/gconf/schemas.

So, may I safely drop this?
In that case, maybe rpmlint should grow a rule to not return:
alleyoop.i386: W: non-conffile-in-etc /etc/gconf/schemas/alleyoop.schemas
on the resulting rpm?
