Bug#374862: xvfb: Xvfb option -fbdir disappear



Package: xvfb
Version: 1:1.0.2-8
Severity: normal


According to man Xvfb I can specify the framebuffer directory:
<...>
-fbdir framebuffer-directory
This  option specifies the directory in which the memory
mapped files containing the framebuffer memory should be created.  See
FILES.  This option only exists on machines that have
the mmap and msync system calls.
<...>

When I start:
$ Xvfb -pixdepths 3 27 -fbdir /usr/tmp

I get:
<...>
Fatal server error:
Unrecognized option: -fbdir
