Ever try to install this and get the error “Package libstdc++5 is not installed”? Try to apt-get that and it doesn’t exist? Well it’s an easy install but there are no easy instructions so I made some:

Download vnc-e_4.5_v4_amd64.deb or whatever the current version is from RealVNC’s site. Don’t install it yet. Download libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_amd64.deb (or the current version) from a Debian mirror (google it).

sudo dpkg -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-18_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i vnc-e_4.5_v4_amd64.deb

You can now start vncviewer with “vncviewer <server name> &” and the rest of it. If vncviewer won’t run without sudo, delete the .vnc directory in your home directory. Icons install to the internet directory of the gnome start button.
