Subject: xscreensaver: web collage screensaver makes debian "default install" of kde
 show porn

Package: xscreensaver
Version: 4.21-3
Severity: important

The main kde package 'kde' depends on xscreensaver. Now, if I 
understand this issue correctly, KDE has its own "randomization engine" 
for screensavers. This makes it ignore xscreensavers settings for what
screensavers should be included in 'random screensaver' and instead
randomize over all installed screensavers (at least that is how it 
seems to work per default). I *think* KDE's default setting for new 
users is to randomize screensavers; but even if it isn't, it is very 
easy for an experimenting user to flip this setting on, unaware of the
'risks' of running the web collage screensaver.

Result: without any deliberate action, a user running on a "default" debian 
install of KDE runs the risk of suddenly showing pornographic images on
the screen (fetched and shown by the 'web collage' screensaver). I have 
seen this happen.

While 'web collage' is a truly original screensaver based on a fun idea,
the thing is, there are workplace environments where this could potentially 
get people fired or sued. Hence, I think it is resonable to try to avoid any
accidental activation. Just like there is a fortune-off package for potentially 
offending fortunes, I suggest moving 'web collage' to a separate package 
'xscreensaver-off'.

However, if the maintainer feels this is not an xscreensaver 
problem, but rather an issue with kde's random screensaver
option, feel free to forward this bug report to the kde maintainers.

Also, just as a side note: another reason to avoid 'web collage' to
be activated unintentionally is that it is a significantly higher
security risk than any of the other screensavers, in that it might
pull an image from the web that exploits a buffer overflow in
the picture library.

Changes: 
 kdeartwork (4:3.4.2-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
 .
   * Rebuild (Closes: #317202)
 .
   +++ Changes by Christopher Martin:
 .
   * Replace the build-dep on xlibmesa-glu-dev with libglu1-xorg-dev for the
     X.Org transition.
 .
   * Remove the dummy transitional package kdeartwork-theme-desktop, as Sarge
     was released and Woody --> Sarge upgrades are no longer a concern.
     (Closes: #322008)
 .
   * Don't install webcollage.desktop. This effectively disables that
     screensaver, removing it from the random screensaver's pool, preventing
     the inadvertent display of completely random pictures from the Internet.
     (Closes: #311683, #316900)
 .
   * The necessary files for the pinion screensaver are now installed.
     (Closes: #310866)
 .
   +++ Changes by Luk Claes:
 .
   * Added me to uploaders
 .
 kdeartwork (4:3.4.1-1) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
 .
 kdeartwork (4:3.4.0-0pre2) alioth; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream release.
 .
   +++ Changes by Christopher Martin:
 .
   * Converted packaging to CDBS.
   * Added a new package, kdeartwork-emoticons (containing the former
     Kopete emoticons, now usable by everyone).
   * Forward port a patch from KDE 3.3 that fixes the building of the
     KFireSaver screensaver.
   * Lower kscreensaver-xsavers's dependency on xscreensaver-gl to a Recommends.
