Sorry meant  FS#32340  This is 32341..

I don't think this is actually a duplicate since tigervnc and tightvnc are two different packages...

Oops sorry. It seems quite common for some reason for some users to make consequent duplicate reports. Thought it was one of those.
Comment by John (graysky) - Thursday, 01 November 2012, 22:28 GMT
Actually, I had a typo in my original example. The attached one does not and is more verbose (taken from fedora 18 package btw).

Do not use 'su' in unit files. User= exists for a reason.

@Dave - Can you post a patch to the file I included? Also, you might want to post to and repoen https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/32340 since Sergej already implemented and pushed it. As an aside, if your syntax is "more correct" than the supplied file, you might wanna open a task against the fedora package since I lifted mine from them.

Looks fine other than the execstartpre hack.
Comment by John (graysky) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 12:31 GMT
Suggestions for the 'execstartpre hack' or good as-is?
Comment by Dave Reisner (falconindy) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 12:42 GMT
Get rid of it? If it's desperately needed...

ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/vncserver -kill %i

This ignores errors and doesn't needlessly fork extra processes.
Comment by John (graysky) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 13:38 GMT
Thanks, Dave.

@Alexander Rødseth - I think that the attached version is the one for you to include.
@Dave - Can you reopen flyspray #32340 so I can add this version to the package or should it be a new ticket?

Comment by Dave Reisner (falconindy) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 13:52 GMT
Ok, but WHY do you need the hack? It seems totally useless.

If you want a bug reopened, then request that it be reopened...
Comment by John (graysky) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 13:57 GMT
I am only mirroring the fedora service file. See it in their rpm: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=352682
I did request it to be reopened but figured since you were so close to this issue you may expedite things.
Comment by Dave Reisner (falconindy) - Saturday, 03 November 2012, 14:25 GMT
Copying things without understanding them is a poor way to do things.

I see no re-open request for  FS#32340 , but I've reopened it anyways.
Comment by Alexander F. Rødseth (xyproto) - Sunday, 04 November 2012, 00:35 GMT
Thanks for all the comments. Added the .service file and added John to the list of contributors. Also added a .desktop file for the viewer and made a minor change to make it compile again.
I was in doubt if the ExecStartPre line should be included or not, but it seems very handy when running vnc on a computer without direct/local access, so it is included.
The fixed version will appear in [community] shortly.
