[X2Go-User] Client for PowerPC Macs ?

[Mark Dammer]

Hi Mike

I just tried it on a G4 running 10.4 "Tiger". The application crashes 
with an error like this:
dyld: Symbol not found: ___stack_chk_guard
Referenced from: 
/Applications/x2goclient.app/Contents/MacOS/./../Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/Qtcore
Expected in: /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib

Doing some research on the net I found that it looks that the problem is 
that the GCC stack smashing protector is not supported under "Tiger" and 
that the package should be built without the  -fstack-protector-all option.

I do not know how bugs are filed for x2go, but it would be great if that 
would be done so that the client can run on older PPC Macs as well.
