[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 879686] [NEW] vnc connections don't work

[Julian Taylor]

Public bug reported:

in the latest gnome-rdp release vnc sessions don't work. It depends on a non existant client program and uses wrong parameters to start the vnc process.
This is fixed in 0.3.0.9-2

TESTCASE:
add an identity, vnc profile gnome rdp and make a session for the combination
connect to a pc allowing vnc connections (in administration -> remote desktop) using the session

You get following backtrace in the log:
Information: Creating process for tight-vncviewer  -noshared -depth 32
Error: ApplicationName='tight-vncviewer', CommandLine=' -noshared -depth 32', CurrentDirectory='/'
Verbose: System.ComponentModel.Win32Exception: ApplicationName='tight-vncviewer', CommandLine=' -noshared -depth 32', CurrentDirectory='/'

Expected: a vnc client opening showing the remote desktop
