Package: xautolock
Version: 1:2.2-8
Severity: critical

This may be related to #1022781 or not.

I have xautolock running:

% ps -fC xautolock
UID          PID    PPID  C STIME TTY          TIME CMD
madduck     2733    2421  0 May05 ?        00:00:53 xautolock -time 3 -locker 
xsecurelock && autorandr -- …

and yet:

% xautolock -locknow
% echo $?
0

It exits 0, but nothing happens. If I use strace on the main 
process, there is also zero activity reported.

Moreover, despite being set to lock after 3 minutes, the main 
xautolock process does not lock the display.

This has happened multiple times, and each time, only a restart of 
the main xautolock process makes things work again. So if I don't 
restart the process regularly (daily? hourly?), then occasionally, 
the system will not lock as expected, and that is a huge security 
problem, hence the critical severity.
