Do a nice screensaver need to contain anything that might get misjugded?
But can we *please* stop this war? It is getting mor stupid by each
post. No-body is suggesting to remove everything funny (such as what
should happen to anybody configuring gdm to run as root, according to
the gdmsetup help file), but simply:
-removing screensavers containing words which can be misjudged
-splitting the screensaver rpm into a "fit for you grandma's computer"-
and a "needs hw GL"- package - so that you could kill the last one
easily.
