Just curious why not the other way - move libvncserver to OE-core?
x11vnc seems like one of the very few [and useful] X based tools that
are present in OE-core that it seems like a huge step backwards to
move it out.

It was discussed in "[OE-core] [oe] [meta-oe][PATCH v2] meta-oe:
recipes-graphics: add libvncserver recipe" thread and I agree with
Otavio that x11vnc doesn't look so fundamental component used by most
embedded builds to deserver being in the core.

Well, I tend to disagree and I don't think there has really been a
discussion - only one "no" (Otavio) and one "I don't know" (Paul).
