** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xscreensaver
  
  In order to vote on the Electric Sheep screensaver's sheep, you need to
  be able to pass the up and down arrows to the screensaver.  XScreensaver
  currently does not do this.
  http://electricsheep.org/index.cgi?&menu=code has a link to a version of
  xscreensaver that does:
  http://electricsheep.org/xscreensaver-4.19-passkeys-r2.tar.gz  Adding it
  to the main xscreensaver might not be necessary if the devs want to keep
  the hacked one separate, but having a dummy xscreensaver package that is
  satisfied by either xscreensaver-standard or xscreensaver-passkeys (for
  example) could work.
  
  Oh, I'm using Hardy Alpha 5.  The version of xscreensaver that passes
  keys has never been packaged for any version of Ubuntu, though.
+ Alternatively, since xscreensaver isn't part of Ubuntu by default and is
+ kind of ugly, what about patching gnome-screensaver to pass keys?

** Also affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
