Package: xscreensaver Version: 5.30-1+deb8u1 Severity: important Hi,
i am using debian stable (version 8 as of today) and since some days i have this very anoying warning (see screenshot). Question one: why the hack is there an algorythm of version warning included into xscreensaver? Question two: how dose this algorhytm work? Dose it just take my system time or what? Question three: why apt-get update; apt-get upgrade dosent fixes this very important bug Question five: what light is now shining on me when this message would appere during a presentation? thanks in advance for the fix. regards treaki -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'oldoldstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages xscreensaver depends on: ii libatk1.0-0 2.14.0-1 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u4 ii libcairo2 1.14.0-2.1+deb8u1 ii libfontconfig1 2.11.0-6.3 ii libfreetype6 2.5.2-3+deb8u1 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.31.1-2+deb8u4 ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.4-2 ii libglib2.0-0 2.42.1-1+b1 ii libgtk2.0-0 2.24.25-3+deb8u1 ii libice6 2:1.0.9-1+b1 ii libpam0g 1.1.8-3.1+deb8u1+b1 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libpangoft2-1.0-0 1.36.8-3 ii libsm6 2:1.2.2-1+b1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.2-3 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.4-1+b2 ii libxinerama1 2:1.1.3-1+b1 ii libxml2 2.9.1+dfsg1-5+deb8u1 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.2-1 ii libxpm4 1:3.5.11-1+b1 ii libxrandr2 2:1.4.2-1+b1 ii libxrender1 1:0.9.8-1+b1 ii libxt6 1:1.1.4-1+b1 ii libxxf86vm1 1:1.1.3-1+b1 ii xscreensaver-data 5.30-1+deb8u1 Versions of packages xscreensaver recommends: ii libjpeg-progs 8d-1+deb7u1 ii perl [perl5] 5.20.2-3+deb8u4 ii wamerican [wordlist] 7.1-1 ii wngerman [wordlist] 20131206-5 Versions of packages xscreensaver suggests: ii chromium [www-browser] 49.0.2623.108-1~deb8u1 pn fortune <none> pn gdm3 | kdm-gdmcompat <none> ii iceweasel [www-browser] 38.7.1esr-1~deb8u1 ii konqueror [www-browser] 4:4.14.2-1 ii links2 [www-browser] 2.8-2+b3 ii lynx-cur [www-browser] 2.8.9dev1-2+deb8u1 pn qcam | streamer <none> ii uzbl [www-browser] 0.0.0~git.20120514-1.1 ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.3-19 pn xdaliclock <none> pn xfishtank <none> ii xscreensaver-gl 5.30-1+deb8u1 -- no debconf information
