That would work okay for now - the package name was chosen with the
intent that in a few more builds the .desktop file it delivers would
simply change to start gnome-screensaver instead (and then you'd change
IPS to merge it into the SUNWgnome-screensaver package) - but it looks
likely that gnome-screensaver will be slipping from nv_128 until after
2010.02.
