Changelog

xscreensaver (6.06+dfsg1-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Tormod Volden ]
  * New upstream release 6.06, changes since 6.02: (Closes: #1019516)
    - New hacks: hextrail, nakagin, chompytower, squirtorus, mapscroller
    - Retired `thornbird', which is redundant with `discrete'.
    - Adjusted some of the very old hacks, which were written when pixels
      were larger, to be more visible on today's higher rez displays.
    - X11: More robust desktop image grabbing.
    - X11: Various improvements to `xscreensaver-settings'.
    - X11: Silence new Perl warnings from `xscreensaver-getimage-file'.
    - X11: Supports "Lock" messages from systemd, e.g. when logind.conf
      has "HandleLidSwitch=lock" instead of "suspend".
    - X11: Cope with dumb DPMS settings that existed pre-startup.
    - X11: Silence new Perl warnings from `xscreensaver-getimage-file'.
    - X11: Fix `sonar' pthreads crash on recent Pi systems.
    - X11: Removed dependence on `gdk-pixbuf-xlib-2.0'.
    - X11: GTK 3 is now required.
    - Settings dialog shows diagnostics for bad image folders and feeds.
    - URLs for `imageDirectory' can now point at archive.org collections.
    - Sliders for various "Speed" preferences are easier to use.
    - X11: Settings dialog shows saver description below embedded preview.
    - X11: Better behavior when zero monitors are attached.
    - X11: Improvements to inhibiting blanking while videos are playing:
      No longer necessary to hack GNOME and KDE to get them to not usurp
      the org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver endpoint.
    - X11: `unicrud' displays character names.
    - Updated `webcollage'.
    - `sphereeversion' now has corrugation-mode, and can evert the Earth.
    - `glplanet' is higher resolution, and displays time zones.
    - `glslideshow' displays relative pathnames again.
    - X11: fixed `sonar' failing to ping on some Linux systems.
    - X11: Touch-screens work.
    - X11: Hold down Backspace to clear the whole password field.
