[Bug 48183] Misinterpretation of an NTP sync as "idle activity"

[Nicolas Maquet]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-screensaver

gnome-screensaver misinterprets arbitrary clock changes as being periods
of inactivity. Hence, when changing the clock in the forward direction
for more than the configured timeout, the screensaver launches.

This is a rather minor bug, I admit, but I encounter this all the time
because my motherboard battery is dead and I have to resync every bootup
:)

** Affects: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Minor
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

** Changed in: gnome-screensaver (Ubuntu)
     Severity: Normal => Minor
