Yes, f-spot should not directly pull in gnome-screensaver.

I propose the following solution:

- the screensaver plugin of f-spot will be moved into a sub-package
- only the sub-package requires gnome-screensaver

However to avoid that users who already use f-spot as screensaver loose this functionality during update, the following update behavior will be implemented:

a) if f-spot < 0.6.1.1 was already installed, it will be replaced by f-spot and f-spot-screensaver - sure, f-spot-screensaver and gnome-screensaver can be removed without any dependency problems and each consecutive update will just update f-spot itself

b) installing f-spot from scratch will only install f-spot, if the screensaver plugin is needed, it can be installed additionally

Comment 3 J.Jansen 2009-09-25 13:31:42 UTC
The one in test-updates seems to be fine. I could just update f-spot and leave out f-spot-screensaver using yumex.
