Description Bastien Nocera 2010-10-12 16:19:55 UTC

Installing xscreensaver-gl-extras-gss drags in the main xscreensaver package, which will install a new screensaver configuration in the GNOME menus.

$ rpm -qa "*xscreensaver*"
xscreensaver-base-5.12-2.fc14.1.x86_64
xscreensaver-gl-extras-5.12-2.fc14.1.x86_64
xscreensaver-gl-extras-gss-5.12-2.fc14.1.x86_64
xscreensaver-gl-base-5.12-2.fc14.1.x86_64

Instead, only the necessary libraries and binaries should be installed, and not the main xscreensaver package with the new configuration panel that's incompatible with the GNOME configurations.

Comment 1 Mamoru TASAKA 2010-10-12 17:44:23 UTC

Well,

- For duplicate menu entry, see bug 530318 (this cannot be fixed in
  xscreensaver side, should be fixed in gnome-screensaver side)
- Some hacks in -extras and -gl-extras actually needs binaries in
  -base, and creating more subpackages is just confusing when using
  xscreensaver binary as window lock manager.

Once closing as a duplicate of bug 530318.
