Bug Description
Hi,
This new upstream release has many bug fixes and a few features. The NEWS entry is:

New features:

o Accessor to determine if we're in absolute mode (Anthony Liguori)
This will close a couple of bugs, bug 206227 (which makes Vinagre unusable) and bug 212504.
Also, I'll backport a fix from hg to fix bug 207205 (<http://
The debian/changelog entry looks like this:
* New upstream release with API additions. No API break:
- Fix more endianness issues. LP: #212504.
- Be more flexible in protocol version negotation: LP: #206227.
* debian/
- Patch from upstream, fixes a crash when closing the connection
in the middle of an update. LP: #207205.
* debian/rules:
- Updated the shlibs version due to the new API.
We are going to test this as thorough as we can so it's easier and safer to make a decision (either positive or negative).

status: | New → Incomplete |
Connecting to a mac, updating gtk-vnc did change the error message to "Authentication method to host "xxx.xxx.xxx:5900" is unsupported. (30)", but did not solve the issue.
(I guess I did not need to reboot after applying the package).
