Whenever I mess around w/ the screensaver on my FreeBSD 9.3R-p21 desktop
(XFCE 4.12_1, last upgraded last week), it puts up a warning window
whining about how old my screensaver is & telling me my distro is doing
me a disservice for shipping such old software. I am of course not
buying it, but am curious why that bit of software apparently hasn't
been upgraded in a while (long enough for it or something else to whine
about it). It is version 5.29 of xscreensaver, says it is dated Jun
2014, which I don't consider to be terribly old, but apparently newer is
available. *Not* a big issue, but curious, any input from wiser heads ?
TIA & have a good one.
