Vinagre not working with reverse VNC connections

[fbobraga]

In the "client", running:

Code: Select all

$ vinagre

... and in the "server", running:

Code: Select all

$ x11vnc -connect 192.168.1.100

... leads to:

Code: Select all

** (vinagre:[i]2117[/i]): CRITICAL **: incoming: assertion `listener->priv->window != NULL' failed

* the number "2117" varies: it's the PID - and in the "server":

Code: Select all

$ x11vnc -connect 192.168.1.100
(...)
25/02/2012 11:14:18 connect_once: invalid password or early disconnect.  0
(...)

Using, in the client:

Code: Select all

$ vncviewer -listen

... everything works as expected


It's a known issue? How can I solve it?

* i'm using Linux Mint 12, with gnome-shell, and:

Code: Select all

$ apt-cache show vinagre
(...)
Version: 3.2.1-0ubuntu1
(...)
$ apt-cache show x11vnc
(...)
Version: 0.9.12-1build1
(...)
$ apt-cache show xtightvncviewer (provides 'vncviewer')
(...)
Version: 1.3.9-6.2
(...)

It (vinagre) works normally in LMDE, with:

Code: Select all

apt-cache show vinagre
(...)
Version: 3.0.2-1
(...)

Seems a bug in the package, not related to Mint - I've reported it to the maintainers pochu@debian.org / ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com
