Bug#804435: vinagre fails to connect to local vnc tunneled via ssh

[Henning Gebhard]

Package: vinagre
Version: 3.18.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


I have tunneled the vnc port of my server via ssh to my local machine.

When I try to connect with vinagre to localhost:forwarded_port, connection
fails with a dialog just saying "Connection closed". Connecting via e.g.
remmina works as expected.

I rebuilt the package as explained at [1] but I could not get further error
messages when running vinagre from the command line or in gdb. Please let me
know what other info would be helpful, I will gladly provide it.

Thanks for your work and best regards!
