Well, I surely know this and perhaps jwz (upstream) knows
this.
I will mail to jwz to discuss this issue, plus some
idea.

By the way why does this bug have fedora-review flag?

Comment 2 Mamoru TASAKA 2007-02-03 05:24:51 UTC
Okay, jwz and me agreed.
Requires is added, plus metapackage xscreensaver is created
for convenience.

Should be fixed in 5.01-6.fc[76]. Thank you for your report.
