I've updated Xscreensaver to 5.45 (from 5.43 IIRC) & 'xscreensaver-demo',
which runs the interactive config screen, has vanished.
'man xscreensaver' says it's available,
but when I enter 'xscreensaver-command -demo', it says "xscreensaver-command:
could not exec xscreensaver-demo: No such file or directory" ;
'equery files xscreensaver | grep bin' confirms this
& it has disappeared from the KDE apps menu.
Xscreensaver is running (started by Xinit), as confirmed by 'htop',
& 'xscreensaver-command -activate' does bring up a screensaver as expected.
Here's the record of the emerge :
root:550 ~> eix xscreensaver
[I] x11-misc/xscreensaver
Available versions: 5.44-r4 5.45 {caps +gdk-pixbuf gdm +gtk jpeg +locking
new-login offensive opengl pam +perl selinux suid systemd xinerama}
Installed versions: 5.45([2021-04-26 00:02:29])(gtk jpeg opengl -caps
-gdk-pixbuf -gdm -locking -new-login -offensive -pam -perl -selinux -suid
-systemd -xinerama)
Can anyone explain what has happened ?
