Thanks.  /usr/bin/xflock4 is installed with root ownership, no other access.  

I ran a copy I was sent (thanks for that), with user ownership, and it did not
lock the screen but did flash something too brief to read. 
sudo /usr/bin/xflock4   did nothing, even no error reported.

This is my first serious bug to deal with.  This should have been configured to
work for the install, and now any fix is unclear to me. So what is blocking it,
how can that be fixed, and once successful, will the OS installer have the new
version of whatever or what needs to be done on that ?
