I've been working on updating tigervnc today.  Right now we have an instruction to 
allow it to be built with fltk-1.4.  However vncviewer does not work properly with 
that version.  I downgraded to fltk-1.3 and vncviewer works properly.

We have a couple of options.  We can leave fltk at version 1.4 and tell users to
build gnome-connections to access a vnc or we can downgrade fltk to version 1.3.11.

Looking at BLFS we have three packages that use fltk:

pinentry   -- optional
    This package does look for fltk-1.4 but according to configure fltk-1.3 is OK.

alsa-tools -- recommended for hdspconf and hdspmixer)
    hdspconf is a gui app to control hw settings and internal routing for
      RME Hammerfall DSP (HDSP) audio interfaces
    hdspmixer is a gui app to control hw mixing for HDSP audio interfaces.

tigervnc - required

I looked at Arch and they have both fltk-1.4 and fltk-1.3 instructions.  The 
difference is that version 1.4 supports HighDPK displays and 1.3 does not.

For both alsa-tools and tigervnc Arch uses fltk-1.3.  They do not mention fltk for 
pinentry at all.

My feeling is that the need for tigervnc's vncviewer is the greatest for BLFS.

There may be other non-BLFS packages that really need fltk-1.4.

I want to get opinions on how to go on this.  What do you think?
