Details

If both xscreensaver and pacman are installed, this is what happens:

pacman -Qo /usr/man/man1/pacman.1.gz
/usr/man/man1/pacman.1.gz is owned by xscreensaver 4.15-1

pacman -Qo /usr/man/man8/pacman.8.gz
/usr/man/man8/pacman.8.gz is owned by pacman 2.7.4-1

Consequently, when simply

man pacman

is called, information concerning PacMan game is displayed. This seems improper behaviour in the context of AL.
This task depends upon

Dale, could you rename xscreensaver's pacman.1 so we don't get the conflict?

renamed pacman.1 to pacman-screensaver.1
