the package is exactly the same (same spec file too) but as you can read
from the changelog:

%changelog
* Sat Jan 24 2009 - Andrea Florio <andrea at opensuse.org>
- - added xtightvncviewer symlink


has been added only a symlink:

ln -s %{_bindir}/vncviewer %buildroot/%{_bindir}/xtightvncviewer


because some applications (like gnome-rdp) always refer to
xtightvncviewer instead of vncviewer


btw i don't think our packages are so bad. :-P
