[Bug 1899599] [NEW] krfb window not opening

[Ross Gammon]

Public bug reported:

Last week I installed krfb in my Ubuntu Studio Groovy test installation
so that I can RDP into it from a Windows laptop. It ran fine, and I was
able to enter the password that was automatically generated and
displayed in the krfb setup window, and use Ubuntu from the Windows
laptop.

Yesterday when I ran krfb (both from the GUI menu, and from the command
line) to get the password again so I could log in from the windows
laptop, nothing happens. There is no error message on the terminal or
anything, it just silently fails.

Today, there was an update to the latest upstream version (20.8.2), but
this did not fix the problem.
