Hi,

I'm downgrading this bug as I'm unable to reproduce it (doesn't affect
everybody, does not make package unuseable as such) and I think it's
unclear that this is actually a bug in x11vnc, rather than in one of the
libraries it uses. The suggested patch is dubious: it is not changing
any x11vnc code but instructs the build process to build its own version
of libvncserver rather than use the shared library installed on the
system. If that's really where the problem lies, this is a libvncserver
bug.

I notice both the Debian and Ubuntu reporters use i386 systems, whereas
I'm on amd64. Has anybody tried recompiling x11vnc _without_ the patch
(as in, just recompile the package against the current set of shared
libraries) and checked if that's enough to fix things? And to produce a
more useful backtrace it would probably help to have the
libvncserver0-dbg and libc6-dbg packages installed.

Florian
