Arch Linux

Updated for xorg-server-1.17

Bah, that's what I get for not even compile-testing. The actual error is above what you posted:

vncExtInit.h:62:41: error: unknown type name size_t
void vncServerCutText(const char *text, size_t len);
^

I fixed that, then had a bunch of other errors, fixed that too. No idea if my fixes are correct, but the resulting Xvnc binary does work.

Failing to build: "Makefile:904: recipe for target 'Xvnc-xvnc.o' failed"

Thanks for the heads-up. I've uploaded a new patch. Should work in theory (famous last words :) ), but I haven't tested yet. So yell if something, in particular the libvnc.so module, doesn't work.

Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option?

Update to build against a fixed Xorg.

Upstream added xorg-server-1.16 support, so 1.16 patches aren't needed anymore.

Whenever used with Gnome 3.8 it crashes as soon as clicked on "Activities" menu.

You need to recompile everything from AUR that uses libpng. In this case fltk-snapshot. This isn't related to tigervnc, it's a general thing every time a library bumps it's soname. All packages in the main repositories were updated by the Arch devs, you yourself need to take care of AUR packages.

error in compiling the latest svn (revision 5097)

/usr/bin/ld: warning: libpng15.so.15, needed by /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.8.0/../../../../lib/libfltk_images.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)

Upstream added png icons into the repository, so no need anymore for imagemagick to create them during compilation.

the extra/librsvg shall be added as dependency, otherwise the compiliation will failed during png conversion.

...just to let you know, the ipv6 bug has been solved upstream -> https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=1126848&aid=3595198&group_id=254363

i don't know what the change was but it compiles fine on my x86_64.

anyway, what about ipv6? i remember tigervnc on my gentoo supporting it but all my tries on arch end up with "unable to resolve host by name: Success (0)" :-(

...can anyone with expertise take a look at it, please? thank you.

I added a new configure option that I saw in the Fedora spec file. See if it compiles now.

That didn't really help. I'm getting the same error message. Or maybe I'm simply editing PKGBUILD incorrectly. :c

I only did a quick search, but from what I can see, this code has always been there, it's just that it used to be a warning. Now there's this during configure:

checking if gcc -std=gnu99 supports-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast... yes

which turns the warning into an error. Adding -Wno-error=int-to-pointer-cast to CFLAGS could do the trick.

Stopped building correctly on x86_64.

I mostly use vncviewer. Will this work? I don't know what the libvnc.so modules is used for...

Well, I made an update to use xorg-server-1.13, see if it compiles now. Since you're not using [testing] the libvnc.so module will not work for you, but everything else (Xvnc, vncviewer, ...) will work fine. When xorg-server-1.13 moves from [testing] to [extra] the libvnc.so module will work too.

No, I am not running [testing]. This is a copy of my /etc/pacman.conf: http://pastebin.com/Az5WuUVZ
Let me know if you need any other info.

I think there's something weird in upstream commit 4995, those "#if XORG < 112" should actually be "#if XORG < 113", and it's this that causes the error. Are you running [testing] by any chance? I plan to update this PKGBUILD for xorg-server-1.13 which is in [testing], and if I'm right about commit 4995, compiling against xorg-server-1.13 will not fail.

I am running a fully updated x64 box, and get this error while installing:

:: tigervnc-svn cleaned

could wait more than 30min for me to reply maybe. disown is fine tho.

Disowned.

Ok, I've taken over this too and uploaded a new PKGBUILD. New addition in SVN is encryption support, which brings two new dependencies - pam and gnutls. Also, this one builds against xorg-server-1.9.0, so you'll need to be using [testing] for the libvnc.so module to work.

new build of this soon; just created a new "tigervnc-stable" package for the stable releases.

Someone sent me an email about this package. A person named "Andrew". I replied to your mail on that day, but didn't hear anything from you later. Could you check your mailbox or write your reply here?
