Heads-Up: X2Go: The Gathering 2018 (2018-11-09 - 2018-11-11) will very likely take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace"

Dear $ALL, since nobody has replied to the call for volunteers for the IT-Kongress event (see <https://www.mail-archive.com/x2go-project@lists.x2go.org/msg00278.html>), and since we've lost a sponsor, compared to the previous years, it is very likely that X2Go: The Gathering 2018 will have to take place at Stuttgart's hackerspace "shackspace" (<https://shackspace.de/>) - "will have to" meaning that we're out of suitable alternatives due to both time/volunteer staff as well as financial constraints. Thus, there will be no voting period regarding the location this year, we'll simply have to pick the only option that seems to be left at the moment. The last-resort fallback option would be Ulm's youth hostel (both as an event location as well as for sleeping arrangements), but this would mean groups of 4 people would have to share one room, as they do not offer smaller rooms - which, judging from previous years' feedback, is not a situation most of our participants would be happy with. This is why we're not offering a poll with Stuttgart and Ulm as options. For Stuttgart, we're looking at a hostel-like place that offers single and double rooms, as well as at a hotel nearby, for people that prefer a higher-quality sleeping arrangement. Details will be published on the Wiki at <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/events:x2go-gathering-2018> as soon as the two sites have confirmed room availability and replied with their booking cancellation terms.

X2Go Server 4.1.0.2 released
by Mihai Moldovan 01 Aug '18

01 Aug '18

Dear all The X2Go project is proud to announce a new release of the X2Go component ,,x2goserver''. New gains of this version of ,,x2goserver'' are: o Fixed an installation issue on Ubuntu 14.04/Trusty. o Fixed spawning desktop sessions due to /etc/x2go/Xsession.d being created as a directory in 4.1.0.1. Upgrade path should be automatic. X2Go Component: x2goserver Version: 4.1.0.2 Status: RELEASE Timestamp: 1533081358 Date: Wed, 01 Aug 2018 01:55:58 +0200 Changes: x2goserver (4.1.0.2) RELEASED; urgency=medium . [ Mihai Moldovan ] * New upstream version (4.1.0.2): - Makefile.PL: update version number. - x2goserver-xsession/Makefile: consolidate a few entries. - x2goserver-xsession/Makefile: also remove Xresource*, Xsession*, xinit* and Xclient* config files. - *.{8,5}: pre-release date update. * debian/rules: + Add support for perl/perl:any substitution variable based upon detected OS version. * debian/control: + Use dist-substitution variable instead of hardcoding perl:any. + Add build dependency on x11-common for /etc/X11/Xsession* to be available in the build environment and the symlinks to be created correctly. + Add Pre-Depends on specific minimum dpkg version to x2goserver-xsession, needed for ${DPKG_RUNNING_VERSION} support. * debian/: + Add x2goserver-xsession.{preinst,post{inst,rm}} scriptlets to handle Xsession.d breakage cleanup correctly. Note that we can rely on dpkg-maintscript-helper's dir_to_symlink support only if the version is high enough, which is not the case on older Debian and Ubuntu platforms. While on Debian, that's only Wheezy and lower and we don't care about these versions anyway, Ubuntu Trusty/14.04 is sadly still supported and needs to be provided a proper workaround for now. * debian/x2goserver-xsession.post{inst,rm}: + Fix syntax errors. Regards, Mihai Moldovan
