Package: vncsnapshot
Version: 1.2a-1+b1
Severity: normal
Took some playing around with ltrace to catch this, but
vncsnapshot -tunnel ${host}:3 /tmp/${host}.03.jpg
gives a Usage message which includes
> Usage: vncsnapshot [<OPTIONS>] [<HOST>]:<DISPLAY#> filename
> vncsnapshot [<OPTIONS>] -listen [<DISPLAY#>] filename
> vncsnapshot [<OPTIONS>] -tunnel <HOST>:<DISPLAY#> filename
> vncsnapshot [<OPTIONS>] -via <GATEWAY> [<HOST>]:<DISPLAY#> filename
Turns out -tunnel (tunnel.c, processTunnelArgs) looks at the *last*
argument for host:port:
pdisplay = strchr(argv[*pargc - 1], ':');
rather than tunnelArgIndex. This would suggest
vncsnapshot -tunnel /tmp/${host}.03.jpg ${host}:3
which in fact gets around the argument parsing, and prompts for a
password, and then fails with:
Couldn't convert '/tmp/${host}.03.jpg' to host address
Unable to connect to VNC server
Anyway, here's a patch (with debugging noise left in) that makes
vncsnapshot -tunnel work. -via is probably broken too, I haven't
tried it yet. The key bits are
* actually *use* tunnelArgIndex
* use localhost::port so it doesn't add 5900 to it again
(It looks like upstream hasn't been touched since 2004, so getting
this fixed in debian directly would probably be worthwhile.)
