I upgraded from F24 to F25. Now xscreensaver does not lock my screen anymore but exits after hitting a key or moving the mouse.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
5.36.2.fc25

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1.Upgrade with working xscreensaver to F25
2.Let xscreensaver lock your gnome-session
3.See that it is not locked

Actual results:
xscreensvaer releases the screen after hitting a key or moving the mouse

Expected results:
Prompt for a password after hitting a key or moving the mouse

Comment 1 J.Jansen 2016-12-12 14:21:50 UTC 
Same happens on a fresh-install of F25 + installation of xscreensaver
Comment 2 Mamoru TASAKA 2016-12-12 14:37:37 UTC 
If you are using GNOME, try X, not wayland.
Comment 3 J.Jansen 2016-12-14 14:51:47 UTC 
I changed my login to GNOME on Xorg but the problem is still there.
Comment 4 J.Jansen 2016-12-14 14:54:38 UTC 
However is fixed another problem I had : Writeable colour maps using DirectColor visual (i.e. in crystal,swirl and stardish) did not work using wayland but work again with Xorg.
Comment 5 J.Jansen 2016-12-15 08:20:33 UTC 
Looks like that only switching to X does not help : After a reboot xscreensaver locks the screen.

However IMHO it should also work for Wayland....
