Public bug reported:

Ubuntu Budgie and Budgie Desktop uses GNOME Screensaver for its lock-
screen.

GNOME40 with GDM now grabs the Screensaver dbus entry that GNOME
Screensaver previously utilised.

This prevents GNOME Screensaver from working i.e. provide its locking
capability.

To resolve this requires a patch to kill the GDM spawned process
releasing the dbus grab.

All of this is explained in the dep3 headers of the debdiff patch
attached
