Package: gnome-boxes
Version: 3.4.3+dfsg-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream
Dear Maintainer,
When I use gnome-boxes to access a remote system via vnc, if the remote system
is vnc password protected, instead of getting prompted for the password by
gnome-boxes, it simply hangs and does nothing.
Equally I am unable to pass the vnc password in the URL string e.g.
vnc://<user>:<password>@<remote host>:<port> OR
vnc://<remote host>:<port>?vncpasswd=<password>
which makes me think that this functionality is not implemented at all.
Since vnc password is a basic element of the vnc protocol, I think being able
to handle this feature is a useful addition to gnome-boxes.
Regards
Os

Upstream marked this bug report as fixed for 3.14.1.2 or later.
The Debian version following that was 3.14.2-1, so closing for that version.
