As the new libvncserver Debian maintainer, I have prepared a test build
and upload candidate for Debian buster of libvncserver that fixes this
issue:
http://packages.sunweavers.net/debian/pool/main/libv/libvncserver/
You can also add "deb http://packages.sunweavers.net/debian buster main"
to your APT configuration and use apt for installing the upload
candidate. (Make sure you disable the repo again afterwards and that you
don't grab other packages from there by accident).
Here is the archive key:
https://packages.sunweavers.net/archive.key
If you don't have time for testing this, I'd appreciate a quick feedback
anyway.
Greets + Thanks,
Mike
