How can I use gsettings to configure settings with relocatable schemas?

Solution 1:

You need to specify the path to the key where the setting is actually stored. For example example, for this key, you need to use the /org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/ path when running the command, like so:

#: gsettings set org.compiz.unityshell:/org/compiz/profiles/unity/plugins/unityshell/ dash-blur-experimental 1

Note that the path must end with a / character, when passed in for relocatable schemas.
