error of vigagre (32.77 KB, image/png)

error of vigagre

1. Enter 'vinagre' in the terminal.
2. Select 'Edit'->'Plug-in'.


The vnc plug-in is disabled, and if I want to check the vnc plug-in, an error of missing some .so file will be showed in the terminal. It seems that I have not installed the vinagre package correctly. But the reinstall 'sudo apt-get install vinagre' doesn't fix the problem.

I tried to download the missing .so file, but at the end, I found that I could not fix the problem.

So any solution to fix it?

By the way, my system is Ubuntu 11.04 and it has been upgraded from 10.XX (I don't remember). Maybe the upgrade causes the issue.

I attached some screenshots to clearify the problem. Hopefully the Chinese characters don't bother you :)

The first error messaage from the sccreenshot is the root cause:

** (vinagre:3240) WARNING **: vnc: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /usr/lib/libgvnc-1.0.so.0)

This means that gtk-vnc, the library used by Vinagre for VNC support, needs glibc 2.14, and you have an older version installed. This is a problem with your distribution upgrade, and not specific to Vinagre. Please file a bug at https://launchpad.net/ or seek assistance in the Ubuntu support forums or IRC channels:
