stop relying on inactive/deprecated gnome-screensaver project
Currently, launching a gnome-flashback session depends on gnome-screensaver, an inactive/deprecated component from GNOME. Not providing the ancient component will result in issues like #676-Unable to perform screen lock on GNOME Flashback.
The Gnome-Flashback Project page mentions this issue as a problem being targeted, but no activity tracked:

gnome-screensaver?
Last release from gnome-screensaver dates back to 3.6.1
, from 6 years ago.
Hopefully gnome-flashback should implement its own screen lock mechanism or rely in a more-active project (e.g: xscreensaver).
