Not only this bug it is not solved, but the new package
(tightvnc-server-1.2.9-8mdk) is not installable, because there is a missing
dependency (XFree86-Xvnc). There are several bugs related to this, see: 
http://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=22598

It is also unfair to name the package "tightvnc-something", and use the code
base from a third project. Either apply patches to the right code base, or 
drop the package and provide a sensible replacement with a proper name.

Meanwhile, for the x86_64 users needing this service, there are source and 
binary packages available at my web site:
