Looking at the electricsheep version of /usr/share/xscreensaver/config/electricsheep.xml it seems they update it every release. The xscreensaver version of electricsheep.xml is an older version written by the electricsheep author.

I propose dropping electricsheep.xml from xscreensaver as the electricsheep version will be more current.

CCing games because of  /usr/share/man/man6/worm.6.gz conflict.
Comment 2 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-06-05 19:30:07 UTC 
debian works around this by installing the xscreensaver stuff as worm.6x.gz.  maybe xscreensaver could be modified to do the same thing on Gentoo?

Good idea. Fixed this bug by:
 * electricsheep.xml and fireflies.xml are removed from xscreensaver
 * worm.6 moved to worm.6x
