Dear all

New gains of this version of ,,x2gothinclient'' are:
o depend upon nodm instead of lightdm (unless using the MATE minidesktop
feature) for dependency reasons
o updated dependencies for buster
o updated USB mount script
o fixed X2Go Client desktop link (MATE minidesktop)
o systemd support for the cdmanager and displaymanager
o miscellaneous packaging and visual changes

[ Mihai Moldovan ]
* New upstream release (1.5.0.1):
- management/etc/x2gothinclient_settings: remove heuler from apt line.
- management/etc/x2gothinclient_settings: add "extras" component.
- misc: update copyright notices.
- misc manpages: pre-release version and date updates.
* usbmount/x2gousbmount:
- Whitespace- and comment-only changes.
- Rework x2gothinclientd check.
- Remove uni_xlate from ntfs and vfat mounts, add utf8 option to vfat
mounts and document this choice.
* debian/control:
+ Add hicolor-icon-theme as an alternative to nuvola-icon-theme.
+ Replace lightdm dependency with nodm for now. This breaks MMD! Nodm is a
bad choice in general, but lightdm has "dependency problems" (requires a
package that provides the logind virtual package) and is apparently "too
big". However, nodm is stale software and upstream considered replacing
it with a lightdm wrapper, so let's see where that gets us...

[ Mike Gabriel ]
* New upstream release (1.5.0.1):
- 19_x2gothinclient-minidesktop.gschema.override: Explicitly use MATE-
specific theming of the desktop UI. (Fixes: #1364).
- Install minidesktop's background SVG to DATADIR and symlink to it in
ETCDIR.
- Provide empty/dummy FreeRDPv2 known_hosts2 file if not
already there.
- management/share/etc/x2gothinclient_init.d/010_x2gothinclient-fresh-home:
Make X2Go Client desktop link executable, so that it becomes a real
desktop link.
- minidesktop/init/: Drop init script for mini desktop variant. Always been
a no-op script.
- Provide systemd service files for x2gothinclient-cdmanager and
x2gothinclient-displaymanager.
- init scripts: Use /run rather than /var/run for placing PID files.
- minidesktop: Rename LTSP display manager override script to 88-... (from
60-...). As suggested by Alkis Georgopoulos.
* debian/rules:
+ Convert to pure debhelper rules file.
+ Remove Qt5 build cruft from cdmanager/powerej/.
* debian/control:
+ Prefer lightdm over nodm for the minidesktop variant. With lightdm
the minidesktop is set-up out of the box.
+ Add Rules-Requires-Root: field and set it to "no".
+ Bump Standards-Version: to 4.4.1. No changes needed.
+ Don't use first person plural pronoun in LONG_DESCRIPTION.
+ Add D (any bin:pkg reported by lintian): lsb-base.
* debian/{control,x2gothinclient.<scripts>}:
+ Drop all transitional packages.
* debian/x2gothinclient-minidesktop.init:
+ Drop init script, never had functionality.
* debian/x2gothinclient-*.serivce:
+ Symlink to upstream files.
