Dear Maintainers,

opening the options dialog works only the very first time.

If it is not the initial start of gnome-commander, every further attempt to
open Settings / Options... (or press Ctrl+O) results in a segmentation fault.
The window is gone and the command line does not show more information than
'Segmentation fault'.

I don't know what the exact cause is but I just stumbled over these initial
configuration thing. So the trigger must be somewhere there. After first
start and exit of gnome-commander you can review the (unmodified)
initial settings:
$ dump /org/gnome/gnome-commander/ > dconf_settings_initial.ini

You can get it working again (one time only) by:
$ dconf reset -f /org/gnome/gnome-commander/

(I've had this bug in unstable for weeks. Now I installed bookworm and was
momentarily happy to be able to modify the options again. Until I tried it a
second time...)

Best regards,
Florian
