In my case I'm trying to offer VNC support for Gnome desktops using Wayland from a web user interface that uses NoVNC. I cannot find a web RDP client so dropping VNC support affects me. Fedora and OpenSUSE keeps the VNC support for the grdctl command. I understand the point of view of the maintainer but I'd like to post this user case. Thanks

I am struggling to find any use cases where GNOME's VNC should be preferred to RDP. GNOME is so far unwilling to provide full VNC options in the GNOME Settings app. The VNC feature was labeled as Legacy in Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. There is value in only providing a single remote desktop method by default that works well. gnome-remote-desktop 43 by default only builds the RDP provider and so far I haven't seen complaints about that. Therefore, I think we should drop the VNC feature for Ubuntu 22.10. Otherwise, we need to: 1. enable VNC in gnome-remote-desktop 43 2. Update the VNC patch in gnome-control-center 43 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1987159/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
