Hi, I suggest this bug, #819703 - xscreensaver: please disable "This version of XScreenSaver is very old! Please upgrade!" message only be used to discuss that issue and how to fix it in stable.
To anyone else waiting for that to be fixed in the package, please be patient for the maintainer to respond about the patch in https://bugs.debian.org/819703#5, or otherwise for someone else to do an NMU. I've filed a separate bug, #820105 - xscreensaver: please consider removal from sid regarding the upstream maintainer's request for Debian to stop distributing xscreensaver, and other concerns about carrying it in future Debian stable releases. And there already was a bug, #802914 - xscreensaver: CVE-2015-8025: crash when hot-swapping monitors while locked where that security issue was discussed, and backported to Debian squeeze-lts, wheezy and jessie a long time ago. Thanks, Regards, -- Steven Chamberlain ste...@pyro.eu.org
