Version: 1.12.0+dfsg-5
Severity: minor

Hey.

tigervncserver(1) manpage mentions:
   /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-defaults
   ~/.vnc/tigervnc.conf
   /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-mandatory

tigervncsession(8) manpage mentions:
   /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-defaults
   $HOME/.vnc/config
   /etc/tigervnc/vncserver-config-mandatory

As far as I understand, all of them except for $HOME/.vnc/config are Debian
addition, right?

But $HOME/.vnc/config is still read (I guess in all cases)?


Could you possibly add the respectively missing ($HOME/.vnc/config vs.
~/.vnc/tigervnc.conf) in the two manpages and also in which order the issing
is loaded.

It would further be nice if it could be emphasised in the manpage, that the
Debian ones use Perl syntax, while the $HOME/.vnc/config uses key=value lines.


Thanks,
Chris.
