When I looked at this before, I think the upstream design was that the
service may be running without actually listening to connections. If
that's true, this doesn't seem to be RC.

I don't have capacity to look at this issue now or soon, so I'm
replying to reset the autoremoval timer since we definitely want
gnome-remote-desktop in Trixie.
