OK, I got it to build. Full notes are at http://wiki.xdroop.com/space/Linux/TigerVNC/1.3.0/building+tigervnc
Points that people perusing the mailing list might find useful if the above page eventually falls off the internet: - don't use cmake for fltk - fltk does not build shared libraries by default, to enable them you must configure fltk with something like ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/fltk/1.3.2-patched --enable-shared - when building the server, I had to make a null Makefile in unix/xserver/man because I didn't have the man source files for some reason The comment from Pierre about me doing a static build turned out to be the hint I needed to get everything to work. I'm frustrated that the instructions for building fltk say to use cmake when that doesn't work in my case. The fltk project seems to suggest that the cmake infrastructure is not a supported/maintained mechanism and isn't to be trusted. I'm also frustrated that the instructions don't explicitly tell you that this build mechanism wants a shared library to link against, and doesn't tell you to build the shared libraries. This could all be clearer, although I have no idea how it affects builds on other platforms. All that said, I'm still pleased with TigerVNC, it is only because the server I am using has a rpm dependency tangle that I can't use the EL6 rpms -- in my testing, the EL6 rpms installed cleanly into a EL6 VM I was using.
