Debian Repository Taken Offline
by Mihai Moldovan 17 Nov '16

17 Nov '16

Hi Unfortunately, nightly packages crept into the Debian "main" repositories after the build tool changes on 15 Oct 2016. The Debian repository has been taken offline for the time being pending investigation. If you have installed or updated X2Go "main" packages for Debian from our repository on 15 Oct 2016 or later, you will have to proactively remove and re-install all X2Go packages once the repository is available again. I will reply to this thread once the situation has been rectified. Best regards, Mihai

Upcoming Deprecation of EOL Distributions
by Mihai Moldovan 03 Nov '16

03 Nov '16

Hi In order to lower resource stress when building packages, I plan to deprecate support for distributions that have reached End Of Life on September 4th 2016. This includes the following distro versions: - Debian: o 6.0 "squeeze" - Fedora o 19 o 20 o 21 o 22 - OpenSuSE o 12.2 o 12.3 o 13.1 - SuSE Linux Enterprise Desktop (not Server!) o 11.2 o 11.3 After deprecation, no new builds will be published and existing builds will be deleted from the repositories to discourage users from installing unmaintained software.

packages.x2go.org, archives.packages.x2go.org and code.x2go.org down
by Mihai Moldovan 16 Oct '16

16 Oct '16

Dear users Due to prolonged problems with the IPv6 connectivity in the virtual machine currently providing services for packages.x2go.org, archives.packages.x2go.org and code.x2go.org, this machine has been shut down. The networking setup has to be redone. We anticipate the services to be available again on Monday or Tuesday, most likely during day time (17.10.2016 or 18.10.2016, CEST.) For now, errors in contacting these hosts are expected. No new commits can be uploaded to the source code repositories. None of these services have been deprecated. Best regards, Mihai

X2Go Client (4.0.5.2) released
by Mihai Moldovan 19 Sep '16

19 Sep '16

Dear all The X2Go project is proud to announce a new release of the X2Go component ,,x2goclient''. New gains of this version of ,,x2goclient'' are: o updated translations o translation fixes o initial support for Qt5 thanks to Sébastien Ducoulombier o includes re-release changes on OS X o host key type can be programmatically changed o switch some host key types from DSA to RSA, more work to be done in this respect o compatibility fix for OS X 10.11+. host keys are in a different directory now (/etc/ssh instead of just /etc) o Debian package metadata changes o support for ANSI X9.9 OTP tokens o new --no-autoresume parameter The X2Go project thanks Martti Pitkänen, Sébastien Ducoulombier, Tor Perkins and Peter Barth for their valuable input and submitted work. Please note that binary builds for the Windows platform will likely be a bit delayed. X2Go Component: x2goclient Version: 4.0.5.2 Status: RELEASE Date: Mon, 19 Sep 2016 06:13:14 +0200 Fixes these bug report(s): 1003 1019 1027 1036 1079 Changes: x2goclient (4.0.5.2) RELEASED; urgency=medium . [ Klaus Ade Johnstad ] * New upstream version (4.0.5.2): - res/i18n/x2goclient_nb_no.ts: update Bokmål (Norway) translation file. . [ Mihai Moldovan ] * New upstream release (4.0.5.2): - res/i18n/x2goclient_nb_no.ts: fixup translation by respecting the original messages' format, typo fixes and other changes. - res/i18n/x2goclient_fi.ts: fixup translation by respecting the original messages' format and other changes. - src/{ongetpass,onmainwindow}.cpp: fixup QPlastiqueStyle usage on Qt5. This particular style has been removed/replaced by Fusion, which incorporates features of both Plastique and Clearlooks styles. - x2goclient.spec: whitespace only. - src/onmainwindow.cpp: add (default) MacPorts prefix, /usr/local/bin and /opt/X11/bin to x2goclient's environment and child environments before starting xmodmap. Fixes: #1019. Requires a re-release of X2Go Client for OS X. - src/x2goutils.{cpp,h}: add new function add_to_path () to add multiple entries to a PATH-like string if they do not exist in there yet. - src/onmainwindow.cpp: replace old code to modify the PATH value with the new add_to_path () function. - src/{onmainwindow,sshmasterconnection}.cpp: refactoring and whitespace only changes following up the #1027 patch. - src/onmainwindow.h: add new enum for selecting SSH host key types. - src/onmainwindow.h: rename ONMainWindow::generateHostDsaKey () to ONMainWindow::generateHostKey () and make key type selectible. Fixes: #1003. Host key type selection currently only works within the code. Replace calls to former ONMainWindow::generateHostDsaKey () with the generalized function and request an RSA-type key. - src/help.cpp: actually make help descriptions translatable. Looks ugly and is cumbersome to use, but there seems to be no other way to do that... - src/help.h: typo fix in comment only. - src/onmainwindow.cpp: add some comments related to maybe using add_to_path (). - src/onmainwindow.cpp: work around changed SSH host key locations in OS X 10.11+. Fixes: #1079. Also check /etc/ssh/ for keys. - src/onmainwindow.cpp: fix last commit by using QFileInfo instead of QDir. This lets us use the exists () member function correctly. - {nsis/x2goclient.nsi,res/i18n/x2goclient_{da,es,et,fi,nl,zh_tw}.ts}: replace left-overs of "X2go" with the correct "X2Go" spelling. This mostly touches obsolete strings and file names, that need to be cleaned, but it's still worthwhile to not have it show up when searching for the old string. Given that NTFS is normally case-insensitive, removing the files will still work. * debian/control: - Maintainer change in package: X2Go Developers <x2go-dev(a)lists.x2go.org>. - Uploaders: add myself. Also, force a rebuild due to the changed versioning. . [ Mike DePaulo ] * New upstream release (4.0.5.2): - Windows: add sshd debug1 logging when using the --debug flag. - Windows: Revert back to Cygwin components that have not been "rebased" - Windows: Update PuTTY from 0.66 to 0.67, which fixes CVE-2016-2563. - Windows: Update bundled Win32 OpenSSL from 1.0.1q to 1.0.1t, which fixes the multiple CVEs announced on 2016-01-28, 2016-03-01 & 2016-05-03. . [ Martti Pitkänen ] * New upstream version (4.0.5.2): - res/i18n/x2goclient_fi.ts: update Finnish translation file. - res/i18n/x2goclient_fi.ts: update Finnish translation file. . [ Sébastien Ducoulombier ] * New upstream version (4.0.5.2): - misc {src/,x2goclient.pro}: port to Qt5. . [ Tor Perkins ] * New upstream release (4.0.5.2): - src/{onmainwindow,sshmasterconnection}.{cpp,h}: add support for ANSI X9.9 OTP tokens. Fixes: #1027. For this to work correctly, the challenge string needs to be displayed to the user. - src/sshmasterconnection.cpp: add support for Mobile OTP tokens and references for the other token types. Fixes: #1036. . [ Oleksandr Shneyder ] * New upstream release (4.0.5.2): - reset session data in broker config. - add "--no-autoresume" parameter. . [ Peter Barth ] * New upstream release (4.0.5.2): - res/i18n/x2goclient_de.ts: fix typo in close message. Regards, Mihai Moldovan

by Mike DePaulo 18 Aug '16

18 Aug '16

Dear all, This is to announce a new release of X2Go Client for Windows: 4.0.5.1-2016.08.18 This is the 2nd release of X2Go Client 4.0.5.1 for Windows. The 1st release was 4.0.5.1-2016.06.05 . The changes are relative to that release. The changes in this release are: - Windows: Update PuTTY from 0.66 to 0.67, which fixes CVE-2016-2563. - Windows: Update bundled Win32 OpenSSL from 1.0.1q to 1.0.1t, which fixes the multiple CVEs announced on 2016-01-28, 2016-03-01 & 2016-05-03. As with most vulnerabilities in 3rd party software, the X2Go project has not done an analysis of whether X2Go Client was actually affected by these vulnerabilities. However, as a precaution, we strongly encourage all users to update. For the Windows-specific release notes for this release, see this page: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:release-notes-mswin:x2goclient-4.0.5.1 Regards, Mike DePaulo

X2Go Client for Windows (4.0.5.1-2016.06.05) released
by Mike DePaulo 05 Jun '16

05 Jun '16

Dear all, This is to announce a new release of X2Go Client for Windows: 4.0.5.1-2016.06.05 This is the 1st release of X2Go Client 4.0.5.1 for Windows. The major Windows changes since 4.0.5.0-2015.07.31 are: - Multiple security updates - Application-wide setting to disable audio input (See the link below for more details.) As with most vulnerabilities in 3rd party software, the X2Go project has not done an analysis of whether X2Go Client was actually affected by these vulnerabilities. However, as a precaution, we strongly encourage all users to update. For the Windows-specific release notes for this release, see this page: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:release-notes-mswin:x2goclient-4.0.5.1 Also, as the (volunteer) X2Go Client for Windows maintainer I would like to apologize for the long delay of this 1st Windows release of 4.0.5.1. The usual rolling-release updates/upgrades of the Cygwin components, especially OpenSSH, introduced multiple issues that broke folder sharing and printing. (These issues have been fixed.) These updates/upgrades included security updates though. I will consider how to prevent these delays in the future, such as by backporting OpenSSH security fixes like most Linux distros do. Regards, Mike DePaulo
