[Bug 130334] Re: [Gutsy] xvncviewer support broken by new version 4.1.1

Ubuntu no longer includes xvncviewer, using vinagre by default instead.
The VNC plugin at /usr/share/service-discovery-
applet/plugins/xvncviewer.py should be modified to invoke vinagre.  At a
quick glance, changing:

        cmdline = ["/usr/share/service-discovery-
applet/tools//exec_wrapper", "xvncviewer", "-xrm",
"*passwordDialog:true", hostname ]

to

        cmdline = ["/usr/share/service-discovery-
applet/tools//exec_wrapper", "vinagre", hostname+":"+port ]

I haven't checked it, yet, but will soon.  This is similar to the posted
patch, but replaces xvncviewer with vinagre, and passes the connection
string as "hostname:port" as required.
