Name        : xscreensaver
Product     : Fedora 15
Version     : 5.13
Release     : 3.fc15
URL         : http://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/
Summary     : X screen saver and locker
Description :
A modular screen saver and locker for the X Window System.
More than 200 display modes are included in this package.

This is a metapackage for installing all default packages
related to XScreenSaver.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

The change imported in the previous -2 was modified so that we introduce new option to enable quick poweroff when xscreensaver kicks in in "Blank Mode Only" mode, after discussion with the upstream.



xscreensaver 5.13 causes some issues when "Blank screen only" mode" is selected. When DPMS settings are enabled, it will look like those settings are ignored. When they are disabled, xscreensaver will exit abnormally.

This new rpm will solve these issues.
