The conversion script is located +in the documentation directory (/usr/share/doc/${PF}/). + +The migrate-xscreensaver-config.sh and xscreensaver-config.xsl files will be +needed to convert the screensaver. Make sure to enable the executable bit on +the script (chmod +x migrate-xscreensaver-config.sh). + +The script takes the module to convert and creates a .desktop file corresponding +to the module. + +migrate-xscreensaver-config.sh /usr/share/xscreensaver/config/*.xml + +The above command should convert all xscreensaver modules. + +You must copy the desktop files into /usr/share/applications/gnome-screensavers (cp +*.desktop /usr/share/applications/screensavers), and the executables from +/usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver into /usr/libexec/gnome-screensaver +(cp /usr/lib/misc/xscreensaver/* /usr/libexec/gnome-screensaver) + +Going to the gnome-screensaver-preferences dialog should now show the new +modules in the list. |
