patch against current git repo
I installed an alternate version of Perl higher in my path than the system perl
and started getting warnings when I called parole
$ parole foo.mp4
Can't locate Net/DBus.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Net::DBus module)
(@INC contains: /home/tim/perl/lib
/home/tim/.plenv/versions/5.22.1/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.22.1/x86_64-linux
/home/tim/.plenv/versions/5.22.1/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.22.1
/home/tim/.plenv/versions/5.22.1/lib/perl5/5.22.1/x86_64-linux
/home/tim/.plenv/versions/5.22.1/lib/perl5/5.22.1 .) at -e line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1.
After some fussing, I determined that the warning was coming from
xdg-screensaver, specifically, the screensaver_gnome_screensaver() function. It
calls Perl with just "perl -e" which assumes that whatever perl is highest in
the path has the Net::DBus module. I changed line 918 from "perl -e" to
"/usr/bin/perl -e" and now all is well.
$ xdg-screensaver --version

Description: Ubuntu 15.10
That's on my system, but the issue still seems to be present. I've attached a
patch against the current source.</pre>
