Bug Description

Status:
After recent (12.01.2022) update vncviewer is not working correctly in fullscreen mode.
local and remote cursor are misaligned.
part of the remote screen is not visible.

Analysis:
Before update vncviewer was assigned to xtigervncviewer
After update vncviewer is now assigned to xtightvncviewer (watch the difference!)
The packet tigervnc-viewer:amd64 (1.10.1+dfsg-3) was intentionally installed as xtight is broken since years.
Packet tigervnc-viewer:amd64 (1.10.1+dfsg-3) was deinstalled during 'apt autoremove'

Bug:
Unwanted / unnecessary packet de-install.

Quick Fix:
'sudo apt install tigervnc-viewer'
