Is there any good reason why the "rh692048" patch [1] that RedHat, Debain,
etc. are applying hasn't been merged into the trunk? I see Martin's point
regarding the order of the security types in this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/tigervnc-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg00746.html
But as far as I can tell, the order is still honored with the patch
applied. The only quirk that I've seen is that after the patch is applied
the SecurityTypes argument supplied to the server must have "VeNCrypt"
preceding the VeNCrypt sub-types, otherwise the client will not be
presented with the VeNCrypt subtypes (ie: '-SecurityTypes TLSvnc, VncAuth'
works like '-SecurityTypes VncAuth', but '-SecurityTypes
VeNCrypt,TLSVnc,VncAuth' works like '-SecurityTypes TLSVnc,VncAuth')
In either case, it seems a bit silly to me not to adopt the patch given
that basically every major distro has already done so. By not doing so,
we're potentially creating multiple releases of the same "version" that are
incompatible with each other. I vote to commit it.
Thanks,
