Let's Encrypt Certificate for Japsand-Based HTTP Services
by Mihai Moldovan 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Dear all I have recently exchanged the previous SSL certificates that were signed with a DAS-NETZWERKTEAM CA certificate for with new certificates signed by Let's Encrypt. Additionally, all HTTP requests, with the limitation of accessing Jenkins directly, should be getting automatically redirected to a HTTPS location. This measure fixes the annoying "insecure connection" errors. Of course, previous HTTPS connections were never truly insecure - the CA certificate just was not trusted by browsers. If you encounter trouble accessing Japsand-based services like the wiki, please file a bug report with X2Go BTS[1]. Mihai [1] http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:bugs

X2Go Raspbian Package Archive: Provisioning of Raspbian Stretch Packages
by Mihai Moldovan 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Dear all I am happy to announce that from now on the X2Go package archive that provides Raspbian packages of X2Go[1] also offers X2Go packages that have been built against Raspbian Stretch - the new Raspbian release version. Additionally, the pseudo code names have been reset. "stable" now maps to "stretch" and "oldstable" maps to "jessie". Users are strongly encouraged to use the actual code names (i.e., not the pseudo code names) in order to not trigger unwanted upgrades and to avoid incompatibilities, since pseudo code name changes are typically not carried out in tandem with Debian. We hope this makes our package archive more useful. If you encounter dependency problems when installing X2Go release or nightly packages under Raspbian Stretch, please file a bug report with X2Go BTS[3]. For setup information, refer to the Debian packages info wiki article[3].

X2Go Debian Package Archive: Provisioning of Debian Buster Packages
by Mihai Moldovan 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Dear all I am happy to announce that from now on the X2Go package archive that provides Debian packages of X2Go[1] also offers X2Go packages that have been built against Debian Buster - the new Debian testing version. Additionally, the pseudo code names have been reset. "stable" now maps to "stretch", "oldstable" maps to "jessie", "oldoldstable" maps to "wheezy" and "testing" maps to "buster". Users are strongly encouraged to use the actual code names (i.e., not the pseudo code names) in order to not trigger unwanted upgrades and to avoid incompatibilities, since pseudo code name changes are typically not carried out in tandem with Debian. We hope this makes our package archive more useful. If you encounter dependency problems when installing X2Go release or nightly packages under Debian Buster, please file a bug report with X2Go BTS[3]. For setup information, refer to the Debian packages info wiki article[3].

Build Host (Japsand) Updated to Debian Stretch
by Mihai Moldovan 24 Aug '17

24 Aug '17

Dear all a few weeks ago I took the opportunity and updated our build host to Debian Stretch. Build failures of *SUSE packages due to a newer version of obs-build were fixed subsequently. We're now running a customized version with backported fixes and commits from the upstream obs-build repository pulled in. The environment powering wiki.x2go.org has also been updated. All systems should be working normally. As always, if you encounter broken packages or inconsistencies in repositories, please file a bug report with X2Go BTS[1].
