Description Sergio Basto 2019-06-23 18:17:57 UTC

I just notice from https://github.com/LibVNC/x11vnc [1] the current x11vnc crash lost of time and is quite difficult  work with it , I need restart x11vnc all the time even with -noscr option. 
But like arch linux we may test version 0.9.16 ... 

Thanks

This is x11vnc with its development continued by LibVNC and the GitHub community. While 0.9.13 was the last release by the original author Karl Runge, 0.9.14 was the first community-based release here on GitHub.

This repo represents the x11vnc codebase that once resided in the LibVNCServer repo. It was split off LibVNCServer and moved here with https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/commit/498d222976975f53dea885cfe43ef0f805abd412.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 29 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 29 on 2019-11-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '29'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 29 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 2 Ben Cotton 2020-02-11 15:44:59 UTC

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle.
Changing version to 32.

Comment 3 Sergio Basto 2020-02-15 03:32:53 UTC

Comment 6 Sergio Basto 2020-04-06 18:42:03 UTC

Many thanks, do you plan bring x11vnc 0.9.16 to Fedora 31 ? I'd like use on Fedora 31

Comment 7 Petr Pisar 2020-04-07 08:08:08 UTC

No. 0.9.16 removed a Java viewer. Similar incompatible changes cannot be pushed into stable Fedoras.
