Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xscreensaver

As reported here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/debian-bugs-
[email protected]/msg615995.html

xscreensaver reports error text about an "unrecognised port" for any URL
entered for text screensavers if the http_proxy variable is in the
format:

http://username:[email protected]:80/

As it is presumably interpreting "password" as the port, as it follows a
colon.
