Public bug reported:

when trying to broadcast my screen i get:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/epoptes/ui/gui.py", line 306, in broadcastScreen
    self._broadcastScreen('true')
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/epoptes/ui/gui.py", line 289, in _broadcastScreen
    subprocess.call(['x11vnc', '-storepasswd', pwd, pwdfile])
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 522, in call
    return Popen(*popenargs, **kwargs).wait()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 710, in __init__
    errread, errwrite)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 1327, in _execute_child
    raise child_exception
OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory


x11vnc is not installed and is not a dependency of epoptes

after installing x11vnc ( sudo apt-get install x11vnc ) everything works
fine
