Confirmed; only applies to 3.36+ (F32 and rawhide), which no longer uses the deprecated gnome-screensaver.

Alberts, should the PAM file be included in the gnome-flashback sources like it was in gnome-screensaver?  Should the contents be identical, just renamed to "gnome-flashback"?  (That seems to work, and fwiw is also what mate-screensaver provides.)

Comment 2 Yaakov Selkowitz 2020-05-27 00:37:38 UTC
Scratch build for testing:

Comment 3 Simon Putt 2020-05-27 03:59:13 UTC
Can now confirm that with the scratch build screen locking with Super+L and menu option does now lock the screen and provide a dialog for unlocking which also works.
