built fine for both wheezy and sid... As
for the final upload -- shouldn't we update X to 1.12.4 in tigervnc?

$> acpolicy xserver-xorg-core
xserver-xorg-core:
  Installed: 2:1.12.4-4
  Candidate: 2:1.12.4-5
  Version table:
     2:1.12.4-5 0
        900 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ wheezy/main amd64 Packages
        600 http://debian.lcs.mit.edu/debian/ sid/main amd64 Packages

testing... handling of alternatives seems to be needing fix

Setting up tigervnc-viewer (1.2.0+X1.12.1.902-2~nd70+1) ...
update-alternatives: error: alternative xvncviewer can't be master: it is a slave of vncviewer
dpkg: error processing tigervnc-viewer (--install):
 subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2
