Dear release team! The current version of libvncserver in stable has an annoying bug [1], which is already fixed upstream and in sid. I think it would be very useful to have it also fixed in stable. The fixing patch is attached.

This is achieved by invoking the function gcry_check_version" Closes issue #45 Tested with krdc + libgcrypt 1.6.1 (libgcrypt20-dev Ubunutu package) connecting to a Mac Mini.
