Bug#654924: [Pkg-tigervnc-devel] Bug#654924: Bug#654924: Helping with tigervnc 1.5.0



Hi

I think we should try to finalize 1.5 first, unless we see major issues with that, or if you know what they have fixed important things in 1.6.

Best regards,

// Ola

that is great news since for me that revision was segfaulting but could
be due to my crude setup ... or may be since I have tried on stretch/sid
mix.  Thanks!

AFAIK Ola is looking into updating it to 1.6 release.  If you could
indeed make a pass to refresh debian/copyright -- that would be awesome.

Ola -- what do you think -- should we aim for upload of 1.6 or we could
finalize 1.5 may be first?  if 1.6 -- then would be nice to import/merge
upstream so that Geoffrey could have a pass on up-to-date source base

You are most welcome -- thanks for offering your help!
