Package: xscreensaver
Version: 5.04-4
Severity: serious

After upgrading to this version of xscreensaver I noticed that the KDE
controlcenter module used to configure the screensaver now lists a
number of screensavers that no longer work.

Apparently the list of available screensavers does not get updated.

The reason seems to be that the following file is still installed:
   /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers/phosphor.desktop
This file is installed by the package kscreensaver-xsavers.

Evidently the package split should have been coordinated with packages
depending on xscreensaver.

>From this point of view the package split can be said to break existing
installations, which is a release critical issue. This BR is necessary
to prevent the new xscreensaver to migrate to testing until the required
coordination has taken place and depending packages have been updated.
