Bugs : xfce4-screensaver package : Ubuntu

admin

This concerns xfce4-screensaver 4.16.0-1 in Ubuntu jammy.

I am running a few Xfce components, including xfce4-screensaver, in an xrdp session (RDP server). Messages of the following form are showing up repeatedly in syslog:

  Jul 16 14:30:12 darkstar org.xfce.ScreenSaver[11397]: Xlib: extension “DPMS” missing on display “:10.0”.
  Jul 16 14:33:42 darkstar org.xfce.ScreenSaver[11397]: message repeated 14 times: [ Xlib: extension “DPMS” missing on display “:10.0”.]
  Jul 16 14:35:12 darkstar org.xfce.ScreenSaver[11397]: Xlib: extension “DPMS” missing on display “:10.0”.
  Jul 16 14:43:27 darkstar org.xfce.ScreenSaver[11397]: message repeated 33 times: [ Xlib: extension “DPMS” missing on display “:10.0”.]

This message should be printed at most once, and should go to stderr (so it ends up in ~/.xsession-errors) instead of syslog.
