Package: xscreensaver-gnome
Version: 4.21-2
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

I'm not 100% certain it's xscreensaver-gnome or just xscreensaver. But since
I use Gnome as my desktop, I'll report it here. After some time (anywhere
from a couple days to a week) of using xscreensaver, when I try to use my
system again, xscreensaver hard-locks the system. So I move my mouse, can't
type in a password as no password box comes up. I can't SSH into my system
from another to restart X or anything. CTRL-Backspace doesn't restart X.
CTRL-DEL doesn't restart the system. I have to physically hit the restart
switch. I use xscreensaver day in and out coming back to use my system from
time to time, then suddenly BOOM! hard-lock.
