Bug Description

Please remove both the source package and binary package of ubuntustudio-screensaver from Xenial.

The screensaver is no longer seeded, and screen blanking is the preferred option these days. And for audio and video production work, the screensaver is normally disabled anyway because there are long periods without mouse or keyboard activity.

There are no reverse dependencies.
