xscreenserver - GLSlideshow 6.03 broken

This is the last I’ve seen here on this topic:

https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/562547-XSCREENSAVER-no-longer-functional

I am on Leap 15.4, upgraded from 15.3 and many previous versions.

The update process loaded the xscreensaver 6.03 packages from the default repositories.

I have tried many of the included screensavers, and all of the GL ones. GLSlideshow is the only one that isn’t working for me.

This is the 15.4 / v 6.03 error message:

X error in glslideshow:
glslideshow: Failed request: 158
glslideshow: Major opcode: 151 ()
glslideshow: Resource id: 0x0
glslideshow: Serial number: 117 / 117

I have the full log but didn’t include it since it is nearly 800 lines long.

I submitted a full bug report to the author: https://www.jwz.org/xscreensaver/bugs.html

Manually installing xscreensaver v 5.44, from Open Suse 15.3 on 15.4 works with no problems.

Uninstall the xscreenserver package, build from source.
Don’t send the author bug reports about outdated versions, he strongly dislikes that.

Sorry.
