Firas, you seem to be under the misimpression that you need the latest
version to avoid this warning message. That is not true at all. You only

Your statement is simply false. This _is_ how Ubuntu works for some
packages, e.g., PostgreSQL. Why should it not work with xscreensaver?

I will point out that the postgresql package is part of Ubuntu main,
