No idea what you're talking about... Installed size of this package is 28.18 MiB per pacman -Qi

How on earth can this take up 271.99MiB whilst xscreensaver itself only takes up 29.93? Assuming just default xorg-server, xorg-xinit?

Filed (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/45743), but I'm thinking removing it from the upstream package isn't the solution... If it's removed as a make depend and the user installs gdm, the extra functionality still won't work. I'm half debating deleting that ticket as I write this, as I don't see them ever removing it since the functionality requires to have gdm installed *and* having built with gdm. This would require upstream to have two versions built with and without gdm. The current behavior is nice. Little impact on binary size, and just install gdm if you want to use the features. The "true" mimicking of upstream behavior would be to build it with gdm and then uninstall it afterward. That's what the upstream behavior really is: - post-install, it will spit out a message that gdm is optional, what it's functionality is, and whether or not you have it installed - if you didn't have have it installed, you still don't have it installed The AUR behavior installs it for make, but leaves it even if you didn't have it. What about a post_install action to remove gdm if you never had it to begin with? It would still download 31MB of undesired stuff, but at least it would clean up afterward?

Oh, and doh! Gotcha... I kept thinking upstream meant to jwz's xscreensaver. It probably *is* required for that functionality. I noticed that building without it will show the button, but clicking it just turns it to greyed out. Sorry for the confusion/miscommunication and I will submit a ticket.

Not upstream, just to our maintainers of the official package. Again, I thought it was in fact required as a makedep to compile in the change user dialog when locked.

@graysky: I understand, but what exactly would the ticket be? The complaint is that gdm isn't required as a makedepend, and it already isn't upstream, so I don't see what to request - Upstream: if you happen to have it installed, xscreensaver will take that into account when running ./configure. If you don't, it won't. So... what's the upstream request? - AUR package: you have to be aware that gdm isn't *really* a makedepend and manually remove it from the PKGBUILD vs. opting in by adding it. It would seem that this package actually isn't matching the upstream behavior. I'm happy to submit a ticket, but this is why I checked the behavior myself. I'm glad I did as I would have felt foolish taking your word for the behavior, asking him to remove gdm as a build dependency, and then hearing back that he already doesn't. Are we on the same page, or do you see things differently?

As stated in the comment from 2014-11-16, please open a ticket against the official package. I try to keep this package as close to the official as possible.
