This happens with USE="-server"
Delete the item 'vncserver' from the list of files in line 174 of the ebuild and the problem goes away.

Here is the patch.

Are you sure about the patch? should not it be reversed?

    net-misc/tigervnc: Remove vncserver binary when USE=-server.
    
    The previous fix was incomplete, because vncserver is now installed in
    /usr/libexec instead of /usr/bin.
