Bug 131357

What does 'rpm -V vnc-server' say, and does 'prelink -u /usr/bin/Xvnc'
help?

[root@cr1lapted root]# rpm -V vnc-server
package vnc-server is not installed
[root@cr1lapted root]# prelink -u /usr/bin/Xvnc
prelink: cannot open "/usr/bin/Xvnc": No such file or directory
[root@cr1lapted root]#

Oh, it's the viewer you're using?

Well then try:

rpm -V vnc

and:

prelink -U /usr/bin/vncviewer

[root@cr1lapted root]# rpm -V vnc
[root@cr1lapted root]# prelink -U /usr/bin/vncviewer
prelink: invalid option -- U
Try `prelink --help' or `prelink --usage' for more information.
[root@cr1lapted root]# prelink -u /usr/bin/vncviewer
prelink: /usr/bin/vncviewer does not have .gnu.prelink_undo section
[root@cr1lapted root]#rpm -q policy
policy-1.11.3-3

Taking a guess this is where we are heading :-)

I don't think this is selinux-related.

Please install the debuginfo package from here:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/i386/debug/vnc-debuginfo-4.0-1.beta4.11.i386.rpm

and launch vncviewer from the command line like this:

gdb vncviewer

Then at the (gdb) prompt type 'run' and press enter.  Then, once it
crashes and puts you back at the (gdb) prompt, type 'bt' and press
enter: what does it say?

That looks like you don't have the correct package installed.  What
does this say?:

rpm -q vnc vnc-debuginfo
rpm -ql vnc-debuginfo

[root@cr1lapted root]# rpm -q vnc vnc-debuginfo
vnc-4.0-1.beta4.11
package vnc-debuginfo is not installed

Arg, got the debug package from kickstart.

Ok, looks simillar to bug

I looked into trying vnc-4.0-4.i386.rpm, but it needs libstdc++.so.6,
which libstdc++-3.4.1-9.i386.rpm provides but does not satisfy deps
for anything requiring libstdc++.so.5. 

Have a dev box that I can try this on, but it is closer to FC3 test
than it is to FC2 though. I will try and update this bug if that is of
any value.

Bug #127134 is an Xvnc crash and not related.  This does, however,
look exactly like bug #123255.

Marking as duplicate.

Please hold off upgrading, since there is a VNC update for FC2 in the
works.
