There is no "problem" per se. It's just that Ubuntu's version of `xvfb- run` is not really compatible/consistent with the one in other distros. Some distros have deprecated `--auto-servernum` in favor of a different setting `--auto-display` which I guess does something "better". I'm just saying that Ubuntu's package could be updated to be more in-line with others.

However, `xvfb-run -h` doesn't show the `--auto-display` argument and running `xvfb-run --auto-display ls` leads to `xvfb-run: unrecognized option '--auto-display'`. This is strange because in Arch Linux, the same `xvfb-run` version does support `--auto-display`. On Ubuntu one must use `--auto-servernum` because of that but that has been deprecated for quite a while now.
