If a user installs xfce4 though, they will install xfce4-utils which
favours xscreensaver:
$ apt-cache show xfce4-utils
Package: xfce4-utils
Recommends: xfwm4, xfce4-panel, thunar, xscreensaver | xlockmore |
xlockmore-gl | gnome-screensaver, dbus-x11, xinput, xdg-user-dirs
We could recommend the use of gnome-screensaver in timekpr though with
a warning for xfce users.
All in all, it seems that in the future, timekpr will have to have 3
different packages to resolve all these dependencies correctly:
timekpr-client-kde, timekpr-client-xfce and timekpr-client-gnome.
But for now, I'll try and read about python dbus server/client, let's
hope I can produce something good. :)
hm.. ok, I checked about xfce, it seems that if favours xscreensaver,
but xubuntu (xubuntu-desktop) depends on gnome-screensaver.
$ apt-cache rdepends gnome-screensaver gl-extra
gnome-screensaver
Reverse Depends:
xubuntu-desktop
