Bug Description
the xscreensaver package installs a .desktop file for each screensaver under /usr/share/
So, to summarise:
What I'm trying to achieve: modify installation of xscreensaver package such that .desktop files either don't exist or install in a location where GNOME (and other desktop environments) wont pick them up.
Steps I took: installed xscreensaver package under Ubuntu 14.10 with GNOME 3.12
What I would like to have happen: Allow install without the apps appearing in GNOME Activities Apps overlay.
Thanks much and I'm willing to help as much as I can.
