VNC extension well out of date
Can we PLEASE have a version of a package (ANY package) that contains a version of libvnc.so that matches a recent distribution's Xorg version?
vnc4server hasn't been updated AT ALL since at least Hardy, and even that update was only a minor one (and not in line with Hardy's version of Xorg). The "current" version of vnc4server's libvnc.so appears to be for Xorg 1.0.2, the same version as Dapper's xserver-xorg-core. Since then the xserver-xorg packages have been updated to 1.4, 1.5, 1.6.0 and 1.6.1 (plus whatever versions were in Edgy and Fiesty) without a single update to vnc4server.
It would appear that my only recourse is to build the damn thing myself, meaning I have to do a complete X build just to get one lousy module. Personally, I don't understand why you don't just include this module in xserver-xorg-core anyway since people don't have to load it if they don't want to use it.
