Description of problem: Uninstalling the rss-glx-screensavers made all the screensavers in KDesktop menu dissapear. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.8.1.p How reproducible: Install and uninstall rss-glx-screensavers using yum. Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum install rss-glx-sceensavers 2. yum remove rss-glx-screensavers 3. right click on desktop in KDE, go to configure desktop->screen saver Actual results: Only random and blank are avaliable. Expected results: All standard screensavers I had previously should be avaliable. Additional info:
All rss-glx* packages only contain a bunch of files so I don't see why installing and removing these should affect KDE screensavers. Have you checked whether the original KDE screensaver desktop files are still present in /usr/share/applnk/System/ScreenSavers and/or your kdebase/kdeartwork packages are installed correctly?
Package kdeartwork was not installed. I don't recall removing it at all! I reinstalled kdeartwork and all my screensavers showed up. This is odd because xscreensaver-base and xscreensaver-extras screensavers appeared, which were never uninstalled. I reinstalled glx-screensavers and reuninstalled it and my screensavers were fine. I'm sorry. This is VERY weird. I swear they dissapeared *immediately* after I unistalled these packages. I removed the gl screensavers because my computer could not handle them. Like I said I do not recall uninstalling kdeartwork and cannot fathom why I would have wanted to. I must be going nuts . . .
Blame it on the heat ;-).
