Description Jan Grulich 2020-09-21 10:53:03 UTC

> Current RHEL 8.3 package version:
1.10.1

> Future RHEL 8.4 package version:
1.11.0

> Is the RHEL 8.4 package version final or do we expect another additional update before the deadline for rebases (ITM 11)? If so, please tell us why.
It is final and I do not expect any additional changes.

> Reasons why we are rebasing (security fixes/features (please specify)):
Security fixes and improvements in systemd support, which we already have in form of a backported patch.

> Changelog between the old RHEL version and a new one:
From the upstream changelog:
* A security issue has been fixed in how the viewers handle TLS certificate exceptions
* vncserver has gotten a major redesign to be compatible with modern distributions
* The native viewer now has touch gestures to handle certain mouse actions (e.g. scroll wheel)
* Middle mouse button emulation in the native viewer, for devices with only two mouse buttons
* The Java viewer now supports Java 9+, but also now requires Java 8+
* Support for alpha cursors in the Java viewer (a feature already supported in the native viewer)
* The password and username can now be specified via the environment for the native viewer
* Support for building Xvnc/libvnc.so with Xorg 1.20.7+ and deprecate support for Xorg older than 1.16

> What other RHEL packages will be affected by this rebase (rebased/tested)?
No other packages should be affected

> Are there any risks related to the rebase?
There shouldn't be any risk. The major change  with systemd support is already present in RHEL 8.3.
