Description Christian Lohmaier 2016-07-08 17:14:34 CEST 
(backport remmina from cauldron to mga5, that version doesn't come with it's own copy of libvncserver anymore, or I guess just try on cauldron)

When trying to connect to a Mac OS X VNC server (the builtin one) with authentication (Password configured to control the session), remmina fails with 'GCrypt support was not compiled in' that comes from the linked libvncserver.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
mga5 and cauldron have same/similar specfile, both not listing a

BuildRequires:	libgcrypt-devel


How reproducible:
100%

Fix is easy: Add in the BuildRequires: libgcrypt-devel  and rebuild....

(no rebuild of remmina/other client programs necessary, they'll work once the updated libvcnserver is installed)
Comment 1 Christian Lohmaier 2016-07-08 17:15:40 CEST 
setting patch keyword, as "BuildRequires: libgcrypt-devel" is the patch..

Same fix for both cauldron as well as mga5

Keywords: (none) => PATCH

Assigning to QA,

 
Advisory:
========================

When trying to connect to a Mac OS X VNC server (the builtin one) with authentication (Password configured to control the session), remmina fails with 'GCrypt support was not compiled in' that comes from the linked libvncserver.
Indeed our current package is no compiled against libgcrypt, so this update fixes this issue rebuilding libvncserver against system libgryct.

========================

Packages in 5/core/updates_testing:
========================

libvncserver0-0.9.10-1.1.mga5.i586.rpm
libvncserver-devel-0.9.10-1.1.mga5.i586.rpm
lib64vncserver0-0.9.10-1.1.mga5.x86_64.rpm
lib64vncserver-devel-0.9.10-1.1.mga5.x86_64.rpm


Source RPM: 
========================

libvncserver-0.9.10-1.1.mga5.src.rpm

How to test this update request:
========================

Test procedure:

Ensure that libvncserver pulled in now libgcrypt.so.11

Before:
$ urpmq --requires libvncserver0 |grep gcrypt
$
return nothing!!

After:
$ urpmq --requires libvncserver0 |grep gcrypt
libgcrypt.so.11
libgcrypt.so.11(GCRYPT_1.2)
$
