I think I managed to fix the underlying issue, but the current state of the
code is a bit scary. I've looked at it for a day and poked here and there to
fix deprecations, but that's a lot of duplicate work since the code is
actually from gnome-screensaver, mate-screensaver and xfce4-screensaver.

It seems that the work has already been done for xfce4-screensaver (it'd be
nice if it could be submitted to mate/gnome teams too btw).

In an attempt at having a bit more future-proofs options for Bullseye, we can
try importing it to the xfce-team umbrella. Could you move/copy you repository
on salsa to https://salsa.debian.org/xfce-extras-team/xfce4-screensaver (I'm
not sure if you have permissions but please ask if needed).

In xfce-team repositories we use git-buildpackage with pristine-tar, could you
configure it as well? What's the current way to build the package?

Also is it possible to just *not* support the various xscreensavers stuff at
all and just lock?
