            Bug ID: 251944
           Summary: x11vnc fails to listen to ipv4 since upgrade of
                    libvncserver
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: kmachine at free.fr

My system is: 12.1-RELEASE-p12

I've just upgraded all the packages (via pkg) and since, x11vnc can't listen in
ipv4 mode.

-----
$ x11vnc -display :0 -no6 -passwdfile /home/myuser/mypasswdfile
(...)

18/12/2020 20:06:46 Error: could not obtain listening port.
18/12/2020 20:06:46 If this system is IPv6-only, use the -6 option.6 option.
-----

It's the same error for root. x11vnc can listen in ipv6, but my private network
is ipv4 only.

I suspect the upgrade of libvncserver as x11vnc relies on it.
