Can you not provide > "xscreensaver-base" to solve the problem you want to solve? Because control-center requires xscreensaver. If I also provide xscreensaver-base, it will allow gnome-screensaver + xscreensaver-extras, but upgrading xscreensaver would still remove gnome-screensaver if both are installed. I could simply make gnome-screensaver provide and obsolete both "xscreensaver" and "xscreensaver-base", but I was trying to find a way to allow both of them installed at the same time. -- Ricardo Veguilla González <veguilla@xxxxxxxxx> -- Fedora-packaging mailing list Fedora-packaging@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-packaging
