@Geballin - see the pinned comment regarding gdm as a make dep.

I'm in the same case as ellypsis, GDM is not needed for xscreensaver, I'm not using GDM (lxdm insteed) but I'm using xscreensaver and I need to manually edit the PKGBUILD before each update. Can you remove gdm from makedepends in PKGBUILD since it's not needed ? You can put it in optdepends if you want to keep it in the PKGBUILD.

@ellypsis - See official PKGBUILD. I believe to allow for compatibility for others using it, it is a required at build time.

gdm is optional, but marked as makedepends in PKGBUILD, so I need to edit it on every update because I don't use it. Is it possible to update?

Definitely works on the Raspberry Pi 3 (Arch Linux ARM, updated PKGBUILD arch w/ no GDM).

Ah, ok, thanks for clarification

I believe without gdm as a makedep, the login screen switching option is not compiled in. I see that extra/xscreensaver also keeps this as a makedep. Feel free to remove prior to building.

Why GDM is a makedepend here? It is not really needed, I just compiled it with no gdm, and it works.
