[Mike Gabriel]

Package: python3-websockify
Severity: important
Version: 0.9.0+dfsg1-2+b1

Hi,



```
[sunweaver@sunobo ~]$ websockify 127.0.0.1:9898 -- x11vnc -noipv6 -display :0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/websockify", line 33, in <module>

    server = WebSocketProxy(**opts.__dict__)

    raise Exception("rebind.so not found, perhaps you need to run make")
Exception: rebind.so not found, perhaps you need to run make

```

The directory /usr/lib/websockify has this content here:

```
root@sunobo:/usr/lib/websockify# LANG=C ls -al
total 44
drwxr-xr-x   2 root root  4096 Jun 27 07:01 .

-rw-r--r--   1 root root 11776 Nov 19  2020 rebind.o
```

I played with websockify and NoVNC recently and discovered that websockify's program wrapper mode is currently broken in Debian 11: sys.exit(load_entry_point('websockify==0.9.0', 'console_scripts', 'websockify')()) File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/websockify/websocketproxy.py", line 725, in websockify_init File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/websockify/websocketproxy.py", line 306, in __init__ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14304 Nov 19 2020 rebind.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so My work-around for the above error is putting a symlink into this directory, like this: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14304 Nov 19 2020 rebind.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 Jun 27 07:05 rebind.so -> rebind.cpython-39-x86_64-linux-gnu.so Please, possibly fix this for Debian 11. If more help is needed, please let me know.
