Hi, Thanks for your bug report. I can confirm this issue, for instance by running glitchpeg standalone:
usage: xscreensaver-getimage-file [--verbose] directory-or-feed-url Prints the name of a randomly-selected image file. The directory is searched recursively. Images smaller than 255x255 are excluded. The directory may also be the URL of an RSS/Atom feed. Enclosed images will be downloaded and cached locally. glitchpeg: unable to read Best regards, Tormod On Mon, Nov 19, 2018 at 3:45 PM Francesco Potortì wrote: > > Even though I have this in my ~/.xscreensaver: > > grabDesktopImages: True > grabVideoFrames: False > chooseRandomImages: False > imageDirectory: > > xscreensaver gives an error saying that xscreensaver-getimage-file > cannot find the image directory. > > P.S. is this package still maintained?
