Package: vnc4server
Version: 4.1.1+X4.3.0-37
Severity: important
I can't use drag'n drop using the mouse from my client machine, for example to
move a file from one folder to another, when connected to the tightvncserver in
the gnome desktop environment. The same bug is valid for tightvncserver.
I guess it's the same bug described here for Ubuntu:
