Good luck getting the gnome-screensaver guys to acknowledge that some people want to use a non-gnome screensaver :)
Please explain again why this is a bug in gnome-screensaver? If you call org.gnome.ScreenSaver, expect gnome-screensaver to act on it. The solution would be something like Julien suggests, a neutral xdg- screensaver wrapper, i.e. make any applications call something like org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver instead. And yes, of course it must be possible to have gnome packages installed without having them take over any session. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/726480 Title: gnome-screensaver forces itself upon xscreensaver users To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-screensaver/+bug/726480/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
