[X2go-Announcement] X2Go release day: nx-libs, x2goserver, x2goclient, x2gognomebindings, x2golxdebindings, x2godesktopsharing
by Mike Gabriel 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Dear all, The X2Go Project it proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.0.0) - x2goclient (3.99.1.0) - nx-libs incl. x2goagent (3.5.0.11) - x2gognomebindings (2.0.1.4) - x2golxdebindings (1.0.1.2) - x2godesktopsharing (3.0.1.4) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. The windows version of x2goclient will probably be available today, as well. With X2Go Server and X2Go Client we introduce a slightly changed session handshake when resuming an already running session. Older clients will be fully compatible with newer servers (and vice versa). The fix addresses a session resume failure that occurred every once in a while (quite rare, but annoying). For the code change please refer to the commits in X2Go Git addressing this: X2Go Server... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=63556d25c3a86f1… X2Go Client... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=3f4eab56698f439… Python X2Go... (though not released today, still mentioned here) http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=python-x2go.git;a=commitdiff;h=37cbc1fa5f7787… People upgrading x2goserver and running PostgreSQL as session database backend, make sure to read the README.upgrade-pgsql-database thorougly: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=blob;f=x2goserver/doc/README… Below, you can see the corresponding changelog entries for the new releases. One aspect we are really proud of is the number of people who have contributed to this release set. Thanks to all people contributing to X2Go. light+love, Mike X2GOSERVER ========== x2goserver (3.1.0.0-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Oleksandr Shneyder ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - remove ports used by X2Go session from database after session was finished if postgres backend is used. - before resuming X2Go session check if reserved ports still available in other case find new free ports, save them in database and send to x2goclient - run netstat -tl --all to find free ports for graphic, sound and sshfs tunnels in x2gostartagent and x2goresume-session [ Milan Knížek ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Fix removal of desktop link on x2goumount-session if local folder of a Windows client gets unmounted. - Remove redundant -S option from x2goagent start-up command line. - Use -f $XAUTHORITY with xauth calls. [ Sören Plönnigs ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Only run kdialog/zenity from x2goumount-session if either of them exists in the system's $PATH. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Use /cgi-bin/man/ path in web'ified man pages. - Use ,,${MAKE}'' instead of ,,make'' in Makefile. [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Provide new package x2goserver-fmbindings. Derived from a package draft provided by Milan Knížek (Thanks!). - Do not create desktop icons for rootless (i.e. non-desktop) sessions. - Allow other $XAUTHORITY values than the default ($HOME/.Xauthority). - For x2gomountdirs / x2goumount-session allow other TMP paths than /tmp. Use ENV{'TMP'} instead, unless it is empty. Then use /tmp. - Place quotations where appropriate into shell scripts. - Fix call to x2goterminate-desktopsharing in x2goruncommand. - Tolerate user names containing "-" characters (SQLite DB backend). - Make sure x2gocleansessions close _all_ open file handles after forking as a daemon. - Add copyright header for x2gofm script. - Add man page for x2gogetservers script. - Add man page for x2gofm wrapper script. - Update date and release version in man pages. * Let x2goserver package suggest x2goserver-fmbindings. * Add package upgrade warning for installation using PostgreSQL. The upgrade warning refers to README.upgrade-pgsql-database. * x2goserver-fmbindings does not have to depend on ${shlibs:Depends}. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:37:34 +0100 X2GOCLIENT ========== x2goclient (3.99.1.0-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Update German translation file (thanks to Stefan Baur). - Build .qm translation files on the fly during build. - Fix for zh_TW translation: add qt_zh_TW.qm file from Qt4.8. - Add language property to the French translation file. - Update qt_<LANG>.qm files from Qt4.8 (as in current Debian sid). - Rename x2goclient_nb.ts to x2goclient_nb_no.ts. - Update all translation files (lupdate), translate unfinished translation tags in x2goclient_de.ts. - Provide empty translation file x2goclient_en.ts. - Fix misspelled word ,,Authentification'' -> ,,Authentication''. - Fix misspelled word ,,recieved'' -> ,,received''. - Update date and release version in man page.

[ Daniel Lindgren ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Add Swedish translation file. - Fine-tune Swedish translation file. [ Terje Andersen ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Add Norwegian (Bokmal) translation. Qt4 lacks Norwegian/Bokmal support, so some of the widgets may stay in English. - Fine-tune/fix Norwegian (Bokmal) translation. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Use /cgi-bin/man/ path in web'ified man pages. - Use ,,${MAKE}'' instead of ,,make'' in Makefile. - Include <netinet/in.h> in sshprocess.h to fix missing struct sockaddr_in.

Recommended method is installing to /usr/lib/nx/Xinerama, so that you can enable/disable usage of the Xinerama extension. * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, use curly braces for macros. * Enable parallel build for Debian package. * Merge honor-ac-dirs.patch from Jan Engelhardt (OpenSUSE) with already existing Makefile patches (012_nxcomp..., 013_nxcompext_..., 014_nxcompshad_...). * Rename patches 030_nx-X11_... and 031_nx-X11_..., the tarball roll script currently requires ,,full'' or ,,full+lite'' in the file name. * Make patch headers DEP5 compliant (030_nx-X11_... and 031_nx-X11_...). * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, fix missing $(CONFIGURE) variable. * Update patches: 012_nxcomp..., 013_nxcompext_..., 014_nxcompshad_.... Also make use of $(LIBFULL) in Makefile.in's install and uninstall stanzas. Inspired by Jan Engelhardt's so-version.diff patch. However, the version name change requested in that patch has been rejected for NX (redistributed). * Apply patches for the Debian package as the last patches in the series. * Fix faulty patch name suffix (has to be .patch, not .diff). * Fix Xinerama support in Debian package libnx-x11 when NX gets built with patch 600_nx-X11+nxcompext+nxcompshad_unique-libnames.full.patch. Still on the todo list: fix the nx-X11 installation via Makefile. * Fine-tune symlinking of libXinerama. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, allow passing of configure args. * Add patch: 030_nx-X11_configure-args.diff. Allow passing of configure args. * Add patch: 031_nx-X11_parallel-make.diff, enable parallel make. * Add patch: 301_nx-X11_use-shared-libs.full.diff, use shared libraries from distribution rather then libs included in source tree. * Add patch: 032_nx-X11_no-x11r6-project-root. We must not overlap with any existing files, therefore, both /usr/X11R6 and /usr are excluded possibilities for ProjectRoot. Use %_libexecdir/somename, since that is still allowed by FHS. * Add patch 600_nx-X11+nxcompext+nxcompshad_unique-libnames.full.patch, use unique library names for nx-X11 based X11 libraries. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:41:07 +0100 X2GOGNOMEBINDINGS ================= x2gognomebindings (2.0.1.4-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (2.0.1.4): - Apply implicit.diff patch from Jan Engelhardt (OpenSUSE). - Add x2gofeature support (feature provided: X2GO_GNOMEBINDINGS). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:55:40 +0100 X2GOLXDEBINDINGS ================ x2golxdebindings (1.0.1.2-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (1.0.1.2): - Continue development... - Add x2gofeature support (feature provided: X2GO_LXDEBINDINGS). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:53:41 +0100 X2GODESKTOPSHARING ================== x2godesktopsharing (3.0.1.4-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (3.0.1.4): - Always use /tmp for lock and session sharing socket (Fixes user individual temp dirs in Debian Edu / Skolelinux). - Pass username of user who requests desktop sharing to x2gostartagent. * Depend on x2goserver (>=3.0.99.9). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 15:00:54 +0100 -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

Dear all, The X2Go Project it proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.0.99.10) - x2goclient (3.99.0.6) - x2gothinclient (1.0.1.5) - nx-libs incl. x2goagent (3.5.0.9) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. The windows version of x2goclient will probably be available tomorrow, as well. For x2goserver and x2goclient these releases will be the last releases in the 3.0.99.x series (x2goserver) and 3.99.0.x series (x2goclient). Today Oleksandr Shneyder has found a conceptual bug in the X2Go session hand shake that now is already fixed in the latest development code. To denote this change in session handshake protocol, minor version numbers will be raised for the next releases of those projects: - x2goserver, next release will be 3.1.0.0 - x2goclient, next release will be 3.99.1.0 Older clients will be fully compatible with newer servers (and vice versa). The fix addresses a session resume failure that occurred every once in a while (quite rare, but annoying). For the code change please refer to the commits in X2Go Git addressing this: X2Go Server... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=63556d25c3a86f1… X2Go Client... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=3f4eab56698f439… Python X2Go...
