Xscreensaver 5.39 repository on the OBS

#1 Post by stevepusser »

Not a backport, since there aren't any versions newer than 5.36 in Debian, Ubuntu, or any PPA I could find.

https://build.opensuse.org/package/show ... creensaver

Example install instructions for Stretch; first add the repo as root:

Code: Select all

echo 'deb http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/stevepassert:/xscreensaver/Debian_9.0/ /' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/home:stevepassert:xscreensaver.list
Download the repo key as a normal user:

Code: Select all

rm -f Release.key && wget -nv https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:stevepassert:xscreensaver/Debian_9.0/Release.key -O Release.key
Install the repo key and update the sources as root:

Code: Select all

apt-key add - < Release.key
apt-get update
If you already have xscreensaver installed, just upgrade it as root:

Code: Select all

apt-get upgrade
Otherwise,

Code: Select all

apt-get install xscreensaver


Users of Testing, 8.0, and 7.0 can replace the "9.0" in the instructions with their release to use them.
