While the /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/ directory doesn't exist, I've got many
RHEL7.6 and CentOS 7.6 systems where GDM behaves the same way as
before, as long as you create /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/ and put the files
in there, and as soon as you run 'dconf update', you see it change.

I'm not sure why the /etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/ and
/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d/locks/ directory aren't owned by a package
anymore, that seems like a bug, but as far as I can tell, GDM
continues to get its information from there.
