Bug#1103398: mate-screensaver-common: when not installed, the mate screensaver fills the logs with messages
Package: mate-screensaver-common
Version: 1.26.2-1
Severity: minor
I use Xscreensaver, so I uninstall Mate's screensaver. The consequence is that I have the syslog filled with these four messages every time the screensaver starts up. I guess there is more than one problem here.
