Can be easily backported.

Comment 3 Andrew Schorr 2017-10-06 13:52:44 UTC
Needless to say, Fedora 26 suffers from the same bug.

Hi.

I hate to be a pain in the ass, but if this patch can be easily backported, why hasn't it happened yet? It couldn't be much easier. I have already supplied the patch. And now you pushed out a new release with tigervnc-working-tls-on-fips-systems.patch and did not include this bump scroll patch. Why is that? It would have been so insanely easy to include both patches.

Regards,
Andy

Comment 7 Jan Grulich 2017-12-07 07:31:40 UTC
That fix I pushed was critical. I would have pushed even this fix, but it didn't get all the acks and I was a bit overwhelmed back then, so I really didn't have time to poke people around to approve this.

Comment 8 Jan Grulich 2018-01-18 12:57:29 UTC
Fixed in tigervnc-1.8.0-5.el7.

Comment 10 Tomas Hudziec 2018-02-06 16:52:09 UTC
Verified that bump scrolling does not work with tigervnc-1.8.0-4.el7 and works with tigervnc-1.8.0-5.el7. Tested on x86_64.
