You don't :-)
NoMachine has dropped their own version of rdesktop (nxdesktop) and
vncviewer (nxviewer) - now they use the originals instead (NX libs >=
v3.x).
If you have followed an "old" instruction, there will be information
about compiling/installing nxviewer/nxdesktop, but those instruction you
can safely ignore now.
