I tried both methods - neither one does anything (I get "Nothing to
do" for perl, perl-XML-parser and "perl(XML::parser)".  I would think
that meant that they are installed, but I still get errors on them
(and others).

Same result.

I went to http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/6/SRPMS/
and pulled down the gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.fc6.src.rpm, but after
I installed it, I got this:

$ rpmbuild -bp --target=`uname -m` gnome-screensaver.spec
Building target platforms: x86_64
Building for target x86_64
error: Failed build dependencies:
        gnome-menus-devel >= 2.11.1 is needed by
gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64
        libexif-devel >= 0.6.12 is needed by gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64

        libXmu-devel is needed by gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64
        perl-XML-Parser is needed by gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64
        nss-devel is needed by gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64
        intltool is needed by gnome-screensaver-2.16.3-1.x86_64

I know some of these are in the XML parser package, and that brings me
baclk to square two.
