gsettings: stay compatible with installed schemas
Bug 747209 introduced an error when multiple <summary> or <description>
tags are found for a single key in a GSettings schema. This check
should have been present from the start, but it was left out because the
schema compiler doesn't include these items in the cache file. Even
still -- part of the schema compiler's job is validation, and it should
be enforcing proper syntax here.
Repeated <summary> and <description> tags are a semi-common problem when
intltool has been misconfigured in the build system of a package, but
it's possible to imagine mistakes being made by hand as well.
The idea is that these problems would be caught during the build of a
package and maintainers would be forced to fix their build systems.
An unintended side-effect of this change, however, is that the schema
compiler started ignoring already-installed schemas that contained these
problems, when rebuilding the cache. This means that the installation
of _any_ application would cause the regeneration of the entire cache,
with these already-installed applications being excluded. Without the
schema in the cache, the application would crash on next startup.
The validation check in the gsettings m4 macro passes --strict to the
compiler, which is not used when rebuilding the cache after
installation. Pass this flag down into the parser and only throw the
error in case --strict was given. This will result in the (desired)
build failure without also causing already-installed apps to stop
functioning.
This means that we will not get even a warning about the invalid schema
file in the already-installed case, but that's fine. There is no sense
spamming the user with these messages when they are already quite fatal
for the developer at build time.
