Will the screensavers in xscreensaver be ported to gnome-screensaver?
They're not supposed to require porting, but gnome-screensaver requires a .desktop file to be present to describe each of the screensavers which it will use, and xscreensaver doesn't provide them.
The %post and %trigger scripts in the gnome-screensaver package are supposed to create these .desktop files automatically. This didn't used to work perfectly, but it should be fixed as of 2.13.90-4, so if you're still seeing the problem with that version, we need to know.
