Title:
please enable popsquares screensaver
Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
It was disabled because of the name clash with the one in gnome-
screensaver. It has now been removed in Ubuntu gnome-screensaver, so
it can be put back in xscreensaver again (only the .desktop file is
missing).
This will not happen in Debian yet, since the gnome-screensaver there
(and upstream) still ships its own popsquares.

ORIGINAL REPORT:
Binary package hint: xscreensaver
On a new install of Lucid, I can't find the popsquares screensaver,
which was previously part of xscreensaver.
The changelog for the gnome-screensaver package shows that it was
recently removed from there because the developers thought it was part
of the xscreensaver-extra package (see
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/gnome-
screensaver/+changelog for gnome-screensaver 2.28.0-1ubuntu1).
However, the popsquares screensaver is not currently listed as part of
the xscreensaver-extra package.
This particular screensaver was a favorite of my son. Any chance it
can be restored? If not, any suggestions on how to add it manually?
