Subject: gnome-screensaver: Regression? Password prompt often will appear in
 the bottom right corner of the screen

Package: gnome-screensaver
Version: 3.6.1-7+b1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

After updating packages some time ago, I noticed that the
gnome-screensaver password prompt will now appear only in the bottom
right corner of the screen most of the time. See this link for
clarification: https://goo.gl/photos/pKiCeJU1j3vwv6f2A . This makes it
impossible to click any of the buttons, but you can still type a
password and press enter to unlock the screen.

I have not figured out what causes the password prompt to appear in the
corner, but it seems to happen 100% of the time on my laptop and has
happened once so far on my desktop. I expected the password prompt to
appear in the center of the screen every time.
