[X2Go-Announcement] unscheduled bugfix release of , , NX (redistributed)'': 3.5.0.14
by Mike Gabriel 28 Jun '12

28 Jun '12

Dear all, Today Alex and I could eliminate another bug (introduced by ourselves) in nxagent/x2goagent. A couple of applications had lost their window decorations if the server is Debian wheezy / Ubuntu maverick or newer. Mostly affected were Qt applications. @FreeNX developers: Please note, this bug is also present in current FreeNX nx-X11 code (as found on Launchpad). We have removed the following patch from our patchset to get this fixed: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches-refused/1… Still open issue: Unfortunately, there is still no fix for the resume problem in current nx-X11. The Debian+Ubuntu packages of this NX (redistributed) release are already available in the known (http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/download:start) repositories. Greets, Mike nx-libs (2:3.5.0.14-0) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream release of nxagent (3.5.0-9). * Adapt patch series (all hunks succeeded automatically). * Drop patch: 120_nxagent_libcairo-null-source-drawables.full.patch, the issue has been fixed by NoMachine (TR05J02703). * Drop patch: 109_nxagent_locale-utf8-compound-text.patch, the patch causes Qt applications to be rendered without window decorations when running in rootless window mode. [ Mihai Moldovan ] * Add patch: 052_nxcomp_macos10-nxauth-location.full+lite.patch, change nxauth search location on Mac OS X to $NX_SYSTEM/nxauth to facilitate application bundle building. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Thu, 28 Jun 2012 14:52:24 +0200 -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

Dear all, The X2Go Project is proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.1.1) - pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.4) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. In X2Go server we have put some focus on automatic client keybaord recognition. Put ,,auto'' as keyboard type/model in x2goclient and check your keyboard settings within the X2Go session with ,,setxkbmap -print''. PyHoca-GUI already has a widget in the session profile management window to enable auto-keyboard recognition. Also, this version of X2Go Server now has Unity and GNOME3 session support. Use X2Go Client 3.99.2.1 or PyHoca-GUI 0.2.0.x to enjoy Unity session on Ubuntu servers running X2Go. Also a fix for an error that occurred when unmounting client-side shares on NFS homes has been added to this release. The pinentry-x2go project experienced a very comprehensive code clean up. No new features have been added, but the X2Go pinentry fork has been prepared for upload to Debian. light+love, Mike X2Go Server changes =================== x2goserver (3.1.1.1-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.1.1.1): - Add/fix Python X2Go folder sharing/unsharing support from Windows. - Handle whitespace in folder names appropriately. - Allow .desktop file parameter Terminal=... to pass through to X2Go client-side. - Avoid error messages in x2gocmdexistmessage if cmdoutput file could not be found. - Provide nx-X11 libraries for applications launched via x2goruncommand. - Add feature X2GO_SERVERSIDE_DESKTOPCOMMANDS. Let client provide a generic desktop shell command (GNOME, UNITRY, KDE, etc.) which then gets translated into an executable command by x2goruncommand. - Detect desktop session mode to use for Ubuntu precise and later. - Complete UNITY/GNOME support for Ubuntu/Debian. - Use ,,-nolisten tcp'' option when evoking x2goagent from within x2gostartagent. - Export NX_ROOT=$HOME/.x2go in x2gostartagent. Makes the keyboard file in X2Go session cache directory. - Add support for client-side keyboard detection. Moved script x2gosetkeyboard from x2goserver-pyhoca into x2goserver package. - Make x2gosetkeyboard set the client-side keyboard on session start and resume if usekbd is set to True and the keyboard type is set ,,auto''. - Reset keyboard settings to pc104/us before setting client-side keyboard parameters. - For finished sessions purge all mount points that still hover in the DB's mounts table. - Make sure we run fusermount from within a directory that the user has read access to. * Depend on x2goagent (>= 2:3.5.0.12), make sure that x2goagent has the patch 105_nxagent_export-remote-keyboard-config.full.patch included. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:16:08 +0200 Pinentry X2Go changes ===================== pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.4-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (0.7.5.4): - Drop mdate-sh and texinfo.tex from /doc folder (autotools build cruft). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Thu, 14 Jun 2012 09:47:09 +0200 pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.3-0~x2go1) unstable; urgency=low * Update of copyright information in several file headers. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 13 Jun 2012 17:11:48 +0200 pinentry-x2go (0.7.5.2-0~x2go1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version (0.7.5.2): - Strip code project down to its essentials, remove a lot of unneeded cruft. - Make code tree fully build with autotools, see README file for further info. - Replace string pinentry-qt with pinentry-x2go. * Make dh_clean remove all build cruft. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 13 Jun 2012 15:11:19 +0200 -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

The windows and Mac OS versions of x2goclient will probably be available tomorrow, as well. (PING: @Mihai, @Oleksandr). Sources and binary releases will be downloadable under this URL as soon as they are provided by the packagers. http://code.x2go.org/releases/ The new X2Go Server version adds ~/.x2go_logout script support to the server-side of X2Go and fixes the x2goserver-fmbindings Makefile. The NX (redistributed) code tree has received a fix for the main Makefile. Also a patch for building on Mac OS X 10.5 has been included, plus an X2Go related patch by Oleksandr. On top of that, we have fixed installation of libnx-x11 (Debian package) on 64-bit systems with multi-arch support (i.e. Debian wheezy+sid). X2GoClient and X2Go TCE have received some improvements, too. The shutdown button is now fully implemented witin X2GoClient, the x2gothinshutdown package has been dropped. The TCE also received a new and more colourful boot splash. At this point I would like to explicitly thank Mihai Moldovan for investing his time into X2Go Client development on Mac OS X. Mihai has contributed some great patches to the X2Go Client code and has also taken over the building of the Mac OS X binary of X2Go Client (including nx-libs-lite i.e. nxproxy+libxcomp3). The X2Go project--with Mihai on board--is now able to offer the X2Go Client for current Mac OS X versions again. Thanks for that, Mihai!!! light+love, Mike x2goserver (3.1.0.1-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (3.1.0.1): - Provide infrastructure for on-logout script calls. - Do only run session cleanup scripts from within x2goruncommand.

[X2Go-Announcement] unscheduled bugfix release of , , NX (redistributed)''
by Mike Gabriel 11 May '12

11 May '12

Dear all, due to the great contribution of Jim Burnes we are able to bump an unscheduled bugfix release of NX (redistributed) aka x2goagent that fixes recently observed crashes of X2Go occuring on systems that had been upgraded to libcairo >= 1.12.1. The patch--as stated by its author--is still in alpha development state but it definitely fixes crashes of GTK applications under KDE, resp. startup failures of the GNOME3 fallback desktop of recent Debian wheezy/sid X2Go installations. @Developers: the patch still needs some reviewing and possibly improvements, so please take a look: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=blob;f=debian/patches/120_nxage… Greets, Mike nx-libs (2:3.5.0.13-0) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * Let nxagent Debian package depend on xfonts-base.

[X2Go-Announcement] X2Go release day: x2goserver, x2goclient (adds support for Published Applications)
by Mike Gabriel 04 Apr '12

04 Apr '12

Dear all, The X2Go Project is proud to announce two new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.1.0) - x2goclient (3.99.2.0) The new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. The windows and Mac OS versions of x2goclient will probably be available tomorrow, as well. (PING: @Mihai, @Oleksandr). The Windows binary may get delay a little longer, as we are currently migrating the Windows development machine to another hoster, so we have to ask for your patience here. Sources and binary releases will be downloadable under this URL as soon as they are provided by the packagers. http://code.x2go.org/releases/ The new X2Go Server and Client versions add X2Go Published Applications support. This feature was sponsored/contracted by Stefan Baur (http://www.baur-itcs.de) The feature allows to export a server-side, user-individual as well as system-wide applications menu to the X2Go Client. We expect this feature to become higly attractive to Linux SaaS providers. Published Applications support will also be available in the next release of PyHoca-GUI, this (and also stabilizing PyHoca-GUI on Windows 7) is currently work in progress, sponsored by Dick Kniep (http://www.lindix.nl) light+love, Mike x2goserver (3.1.1.0-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.1.1.0): - Syslog warnings have to be named ,,warning'' not ,,warn''. - Add usage output to x2goserver-run-extensions. - Fix syslog output of x2goserver-run-exentions. - Fix x2goserver extension calls in x2goruncommand. - Add feature name ,,X2GO_PUBLISHED_APPLICATIONS''. - Add new command ,,x2gofeaturelist''. This command can be used by X2Go client applications to retrieve a list of server-side supported X2Go features. - Update date and version number in man pages. - Fix race condition between session.log of x2goagent and x2gocleansessions. The old situation was: in cases that x2goagent was not fast enough with appending the new session state to the session.log file, the x2gocleansessions script marked the session as suspended during the session resuming process. - Wait one second for x2goagent to write to session.log before updating the session state from 'S' to 'R' in the X2Go session database. - Add X2Go server script x2gogetstatus. - Add/enable debugging of x2gocleansessions. - Silence error messages if the agent's session.log file is not accessible (e.g. on NFSv4+Krb5-mounted homes). - Improve concurrent database access with session db backend SQLite. * Remove /etc/x2go/applications on package removal if it is a symlink, keep it, if it is a directory. Remove /etc/x2go (if empty after purge) on package purge. * Bump Debian packaging standards version to 3.9.3. * Use dh_link to symlink X11 directories into /etc/x2go. [ Oleksandr Shneyder ] * New upstream version (3.1.1.0): - Support for "published applications".

Sponsored by Stefan Baur (http://www.baur-itcs.de) - Command line argument "--session-conf=<file>": path to alternative session config. - Fixed bug "light font colour on light background" by dark colour schema. - Make X2Go system tray icon not transparent. - Replace text on buttons "Application", "Share folder", "Suspend", "Terminate" with icons to fit in dialog window. - Support for SVG icons for published applications - Set "nofocus" policy for tool buttons. - Some improvements when using pgp card. - Setting TCP_NODELAY for sockets on reverse tunnel and ssh session. - Support for category X2Go-Top to display published applications on top of application menu. - Exporting PULSE_CLIENTCONFIG when running published applications. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 04 Apr 2012 11:52:07 +0200 -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x… Dear all, The X2Go Project is proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.0.1) - nx-libs incl. x2goagent (3.5.0.12) - x2goclient (3.99.1.1) - x2gothinclient (1.0.1.6) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h.

The NX (redistributed) code tree has received a fix for the main Makefile. Also a patch for building on Mac OS X 10.5 has been included, plus an X2Go related patch by Oleksandr. On top of that, we have fixed installation of libnx-x11 (Debian package) on 64-bit systems with multi-arch support (i.e. Debian wheezy+sid). X2GoClient and X2Go TCE have received some improvements, too. The shutdown button is now fully implemented witin X2GoClient, the x2gothinshutdown package has been dropped. The TCE also received a new and more colourful boot splash. At this point I would like to explicitly thank Mihai Moldovan for investing his time into X2Go Client development on Mac OS X. Mihai has contributed some great patches to the X2Go Client code and has also taken over the building of the Mac OS X binary of X2Go Client (including nx-libs-lite i.e. nxproxy+libxcomp3).

[X2go-Announcement] X2Go release day: nx-libs, x2goserver, x2goclient, x2gognomebindings, x2golxdebindings, x2godesktopsharing
by Mike Gabriel 22 Feb '12

22 Feb '12

Dear all, The X2Go Project it proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.1.0.0) - x2goclient (3.99.1.0) - nx-libs incl. x2goagent (3.5.0.11) - x2gognomebindings (2.0.1.4) - x2golxdebindings (1.0.1.2) - x2godesktopsharing (3.0.1.4) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. The windows version of x2goclient will probably be available today, as well. With X2Go Server and X2Go Client we introduce a slightly changed session handshake when resuming an already running session. Older clients will be fully compatible with newer servers (and vice versa). The fix addresses a session resume failure that occurred every once in a while (quite rare, but annoying). For the code change please refer to the commits in X2Go Git addressing this: X2Go Server... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=63556d25c3a86f1… X2Go Client... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=3f4eab56698f439… Python X2Go... (though not released today, still mentioned here) http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=python-x2go.git;a=commitdiff;h=37cbc1fa5f7787… People upgrading x2goserver and running PostgreSQL as session database backend, make sure to read the README.upgrade-pgsql-database thorougly: http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=blob;f=x2goserver/doc/README… Below, you can see the corresponding changelog entries for the new releases. One aspect we are really proud of is the number of people who have contributed to this release set. Thanks to all people contributing to X2Go. light+love, Mike X2GOSERVER ========== x2goserver (3.1.0.0-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Oleksandr Shneyder ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - remove ports used by X2Go session from database after session was finished if postgres backend is used. - before resuming X2Go session check if reserved ports still available in other case find new free ports, save them in database and send to x2goclient - run netstat -tl --all to find free ports for graphic, sound and sshfs tunnels in x2gostartagent and x2goresume-session [ Milan Knížek ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Fix removal of desktop link on x2goumount-session if local folder of a Windows client gets unmounted. - Remove redundant -S option from x2goagent start-up command line. - Use -f $XAUTHORITY with xauth calls. [ Sören Plönnigs ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Only run kdialog/zenity from x2goumount-session if either of them exists in the system's $PATH. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Use /cgi-bin/man/ path in web'ified man pages. - Use ,,${MAKE}'' instead of ,,make'' in Makefile. [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.1.0.0): - Provide new package x2goserver-fmbindings. Derived from a package draft provided by Milan Knížek (Thanks!). - Do not create desktop icons for rootless (i.e. non-desktop) sessions. - Allow other $XAUTHORITY values than the default ($HOME/.Xauthority). - For x2gomountdirs / x2goumount-session allow other TMP paths than /tmp. Use ENV{'TMP'} instead, unless it is empty. Then use /tmp. - Place quotations where appropriate into shell scripts. - Fix call to x2goterminate-desktopsharing in x2goruncommand. - Tolerate user names containing "-" characters (SQLite DB backend). - Make sure x2gocleansessions close _all_ open file handles after forking as a daemon. - Add copyright header for x2gofm script. - Add man page for x2gogetservers script. - Add man page for x2gofm wrapper script. - Update date and release version in man pages. * Let x2goserver package suggest x2goserver-fmbindings. * Add package upgrade warning for installation using PostgreSQL. The upgrade warning refers to README.upgrade-pgsql-database. * x2goserver-fmbindings does not have to depend on ${shlibs:Depends}. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:37:34 +0100 X2GOCLIENT ========== x2goclient (3.99.1.0-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Update German translation file (thanks to Stefan Baur). - Build .qm translation files on the fly during build. - Fix for zh_TW translation: add qt_zh_TW.qm file from Qt4.8. - Add language property to the French translation file. - Update qt_<LANG>.qm files from Qt4.8 (as in current Debian sid). - Rename x2goclient_nb.ts to x2goclient_nb_no.ts. - Update all translation files (lupdate), translate unfinished translation tags in x2goclient_de.ts. - Provide empty translation file x2goclient_en.ts. - Fix misspelled word ,,Authentification'' -> ,,Authentication''. - Fix misspelled word ,,recieved'' -> ,,received''. - Update date and release version in man page. [ Mihai Moldovan ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Mac OS patch: Raise the stack space to 2MB for secondary threads. It previously used the 512KB system default. [ Daniel Lindgren ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Add Swedish translation file. - Fine-tune Swedish translation file.

Qt4 lacks Norwegian/Bokmal support, so some of the widgets may stay in English. - Fine-tune/fix Norwegian (Bokmal) translation. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * New upstream version (3.99.1.0): - Use /cgi-bin/man/ path in web'ified man pages. - Use ,,${MAKE}'' instead of ,,make'' in Makefile. - Include <netinet/in.h> in sshprocess.h to fix missing struct sockaddr_in.

Recommended method is installing to /usr/lib/nx/Xinerama, so that you can enable/disable usage of the Xinerama extension. * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, use curly braces for macros. * Enable parallel build for Debian package. * Merge honor-ac-dirs.patch from Jan Engelhardt (OpenSUSE) with already existing Makefile patches (012_nxcomp..., 013_nxcompext_..., 014_nxcompshad_...). * Rename patches 030_nx-X11_... and 031_nx-X11_..., the tarball roll script currently requires ,,full'' or ,,full+lite'' in the file name. * Make patch headers DEP5 compliant (030_nx-X11_... and 031_nx-X11_...). * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, fix missing $(CONFIGURE) variable. * Update patches: 012_nxcomp..., 013_nxcompext_..., 014_nxcompshad_.... Also make use of $(LIBFULL) in Makefile.in's install and uninstall stanzas. Inspired by Jan Engelhardt's so-version.diff patch. However, the version name change requested in that patch has been rejected for NX (redistributed). * Apply patches for the Debian package as the last patches in the series. * Fix faulty patch name suffix (has to be .patch, not .diff). * Fix Xinerama support in Debian package libnx-x11 when NX gets built with patch 600_nx-X11+nxcompext+nxcompshad_unique-libnames.full.patch. Still on the todo list: fix the nx-X11 installation via Makefile. * Fine-tune symlinking of libXinerama. [ Jan Engelhardt ] * Update patch: 001_add-main-makefile.full+lite.patch, allow passing of configure args. * Add patch: 030_nx-X11_configure-args.diff. Allow passing of configure args. * Add patch: 031_nx-X11_parallel-make.diff, enable parallel make. * Add patch: 301_nx-X11_use-shared-libs.full.diff, use shared libraries from distribution rather then libs included in source tree. * Add patch: 032_nx-X11_no-x11r6-project-root. We must not overlap with any existing files, therefore, both /usr/X11R6 and /usr are excluded possibilities for ProjectRoot. Use %_libexecdir/somename, since that is still allowed by FHS. * Add patch 600_nx-X11+nxcompext+nxcompshad_unique-libnames.full.patch, use unique library names for nx-X11 based X11 libraries. -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:41:07 +0100 X2GOGNOMEBINDINGS ================= x2gognomebindings (2.0.1.4-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (2.0.1.4): - Apply implicit.diff patch from Jan Engelhardt (OpenSUSE). - Add x2gofeature support (feature provided: X2GO_GNOMEBINDINGS). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:55:40 +0100 X2GOLXDEBINDINGS ================ x2golxdebindings (1.0.1.2-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (1.0.1.2): - Continue development... - Add x2gofeature support (feature provided: X2GO_LXDEBINDINGS). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 14:53:41 +0100 X2GODESKTOPSHARING ================== x2godesktopsharing (3.0.1.4-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low * New upstream version (3.0.1.4): - Always use /tmp for lock and session sharing socket (Fixes user individual temp dirs in Debian Edu / Skolelinux). - Pass username of user who requests desktop sharing to x2gostartagent. * Depend on x2goserver (>=3.0.99.9). -- Mike Gabriel <mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de> Wed, 22 Feb 2012 15:00:54 +0100 -- DAS-NETZWERKTEAM mike gabriel, dorfstr. 27, 24245 barmissen fon: +49 (4302) 281418, fax: +49 (4302) 281419 GnuPG Key ID 0xB588399B mail: mike.gabriel(a)das-netzwerkteam.de, http://das-netzwerkteam.de freeBusy: https://mail.das-netzwerkteam.de/freebusy/m.gabriel%40das-netzwerkteam.de.x…

[X2go-Announcement] X2Go release day: x2goserver, x2goclient, x2gothinclient, nx-libs (incl. x2goagent)
by Mike Gabriel 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

Dear all, The X2Go Project it proud to announce a couple of new X2Go component releases: - x2goserver (3.0.99.10) - x2goclient (3.99.0.6) - x2gothinclient (1.0.1.5) - nx-libs incl. x2goagent (3.5.0.9) All new packages will be available in our stable repositories (Debian, Ubuntu) within the next 24h. The windows version of x2goclient will probably be available tomorrow, as well. For x2goserver and x2goclient these releases will be the last releases in the 3.0.99.x series (x2goserver) and 3.99.0.x series (x2goclient). Today Oleksandr Shneyder has found a conceptual bug in the X2Go session hand shake that now is already fixed in the latest development code. To denote this change in session handshake protocol, minor version numbers will be raised for the next releases of those projects: - x2goserver, next release will be 3.1.0.0 - x2goclient, next release will be 3.99.1.0 Older clients will be fully compatible with newer servers (and vice versa). The fix addresses a session resume failure that occurred every once in a while (quite rare, but annoying). For the code change please refer to the commits in X2Go Git addressing this: X2Go Server... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goserver.git;a=commitdiff;h=63556d25c3a86f1… X2Go Client... http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=3f4eab56698f439… Python X2Go... [patch will follow during the next 7 days for version 0.1.2.0] Below, you can see the corresponding changelog entries for the new releases. light+love, Mike X2GO SERVER =========== x2goserver (3.0.99.10-0~x2go1) RELEASE; urgency=low [ Mike Gabriel ] * New upstream version (3.0.99.10): - Replace all string ,,X2go.' with ,,X2Go''. - Use $(MAKE) -C <subdir> calls to run Makefiles in subfolders. - Disable rastering in >= KDE4.8 and Qt4.8. * x2goserver.postinst script leaves the DB file alone if a DB backend different from SQLite is configured. Thanks to Jochen Schulz for bringing this into awareness. [ Jochen Schulz ] * New upstream version (3.0.99.10): - Escape DB user names in x2godbadmin. - Export KRB5CCNAME in x2goruncommand, make Kerberos ticket cache known inside X2Go sessions.
