[X2Go-Announcement] New X2Go releases: x2goserver, cups-x2go, x2goplasmabindings, python-x2go
by Mike Gabriel 25 Sep '12

25 Sep '12

Dear all, The X2Go Project is proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.1.4) - cups-x2go (3.0.0.4) - x2goplasmabindings (with plasma-widget-x2go, 3.0.1.4) - python-x2go (0.2.0.10) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. In the past months we skipped some minor announcements of release that were related to inclusion of some X2Go components in Debian (being available wheezy, partly in jessie). In the new X2Go Server release several issues got addressed: o Audio support (pulseaudio) with X2Go-proxied RDP sessions o Media support (client-side shared folders) for X2Go-proxied RDP sessions o XDCMP session type fixed o Fix KWin crashes on Kubuntu 12.04 (sponsored by Rohloff AG, thanks Mirco!!!) o Fix Xinerama with x2goserver-xsession package installed (also: thanks Mirco) In cups-x2go Helmer Teles provided us with a patch that now allows to specify the number of copies in a print job. Thanks to Helmer for that. In Python X2Go we fixed these issues: o Colour depth issues on Windows Clients (16 vs 17 bit) o Keyboard focus in X2Go-proxied RDP session against Windows 7 / 2008 o Fix session crashes due to left over bash-like commands o Prepare for DirectRDP session options... A Windows version of PyHoca-GUI with latest Python X2Go in it will be deferred till the release of PyHoca-GUI 0.2.0.5 (due in a couple of weeks, I guess). In the Plasma widget for X2Go we adapted the code to become aware of the modified mount points for SSHfs shares (introduced with X2Go Server 3.1.1.2). light+love, Mike x2goserver (3.1.1.4-0~x2go1) unstable; urgency=low [ Jan Engelhardt ] * New upstream version (3.1.1.4): - Add -pie as linker flag. Fixes non-position-independent-executable (x2gosqlitewrapper.c). The executable is now completely position independent. [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.1.1.4): - Fix x2gosessionlimit script. - Wrap padsp around rdesktop calls if pulse is used as audio protocol. - Add option ,,-r sound:local'' to rdesktop calls if pulse is enabled. - Proxy X2Go client-side shares into remote desktop session. - For applications inside of a session, use NX's Xrandr library instead of Xorg's Xrandr library (partially closes #28). - Make sure when launching desktop session through the Xsession mechanism that the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable stays intact. Closes #29. - Only extend LD_LIBRARY_PATH by Xrandr extension for KDE. Breaks GNOME. * /debian/control: + Maintainer change in package: X2Go Developers <x2go-dev(a)lists.berlios.de>. + Depend on nx-libs (>=3.5.0.15-0~) which has the Xrandr symlinks folder. + Add rdesktop and pulseaudio-utils to Suggests. + Priority: optional.
