This indicates that for some reason the Sugar gconf schema files
(containing the defaults for all configuration settings) are not found
and / or not used. You may get other, more subtle breakage if you
don't fix the underlying problem.

You should work with the ArchLinux Sugar packager / packaging team to
figure out why. If Sugar packages are treated specially in Arch Linux
(using GCONF_DEFAULT_SOURCE_PATH rather than installing to a system
location or adjusting /etc/gconf/2/path), Gnome#664031 may be the
culprit.
