XScreenSaverSuspend comes from the X11 Screen Saver extension library,
Package: libxss-dev.

This is naming confusion - XScreenSaverSuspend has nothing to do with
xscreensaver. After speaking with the xscreensaver devs, libxss-dev
package isn't used by the team. They recommend the use of the
xscreensaver-command utility to achieve such functionality.

Title:
  Inhibition of xscreensaver with XScreenSaverSuspend fail

Status in xscreensaver package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xscreensaver

  I'm trying to stop xscreensaver using XScreenSaverSuspend, but it doesn't seems to work.
  I writed a test case to test the behavior, and it confirmed the problem. (see tect.c attached)
  XScreenSaverSuspend is used at least in mplayer and gnome-mplayer to stop the screensaver when a video is played.
