Details

This package currently provides 11 screensavers. Would it be possible for you to modify it to a split package and those allow users the ability to install any 1 of them individually? I am unfamiliar with cmake so I cannot suggest a patch to the current PKGBUILD. Creating the split package would be valuable for saving space on host machines as well as be consistent with the current [community] offering for other kodi-addon-screensaver* as many if not all provide one per package. Thank you for the consideration and for maintaining!
This task depends upon

Doesn't look like it will be easy: https://github.com/notspiff/screensavers.rsxs/issues/8

Perhaps you know a slicker way to achieve it?

I don't think the effort is worth it to split a package that only takes ~4MB of unpacked diskspace.
