...as that discussion targeted TightVNC, not TigerVNC.
While
TigerVNC may have been based on TightVNC, this current incarnation appears to mostly target Intel based operating systems of which they only claim compatibility to Linux, Windows, & OS/X. If you are compiling this for HPPA, you may
(or may not...) run into processor-specific issues.
Recognize that OpenBSD does not have the same filesystem arrangement as Linux. For more information, study the
hier(7) manpage. This may be an issue with where TigerVNC expects particular locations, but you will need to study the source code in order to determine if changes are needed. I suspect your comment about being unable to locate the X header files stems from the difference in filesystem layouts.
Likewise, all libraries required by TigerVNC may or may not be ported to OpenBSD. Again, you will need to study the source code in order to determine if this is a problem. You may end up needing to port supporting libraries too.
Many applications today tend to be Linux-centric which doesn't help the other Unix-like operating systems. Studying the source code will be required in order to determine if it can be ported successfully to OpenBSD.
