Reorganization of http://code.x2go.org/releases/
by Michael DePaulo 08 Sep '14

08 Sep '14

Everyone, I just did a reorganization of http://code.x2go.org/releases/ I would like to know: 1. Should we post this to our announcements list? Other projects might be using specific URLs. 2. Who uploaded all these Windows builds on 2014-08-08? Main changes: 1. There were a bunch of builds posted under these 2 folders on 2014-08-08: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/ http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/pyhoca-gui/ I moved them to subfolders such as: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/x2goclient/previews/3.99.2.1/ 2. Some of those uploads were duplicates. I deleted the duplicates only. 3. I cleaned up the 3rd-party binary and sources directories. For example, for libssh, windows builds are now under these folders: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh/ http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh-modified-by-x2g… And libssh sources (including individual patch files) are under these folders: http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh/ http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/ The general rules I have are: 1. If the source code (including makefiles) was modified by X2Go project members, put the binaries and sources under "-modified-by-x2go-project" folders, including under a subfolder if you deem appropriate.. 2. The 1st rule still applies if you expect the the patches to be upstreamed. 3. If they were not modified by X2Go project members, put them under folders without that suffix, including under a subfolder if you deem appropriate. 4. If all the patches were upstreamed, then new releases with all those patches incorporated should be under a folder without that suffix. -Mike

Bug#474: libssh-0.6.3 fails to build
by Michael DePaulo 08 Sep '14

08 Sep '14

Hey Alex, Can you explain why libssh-0.6.3 fails to build under MinGW 4.8.2? libssh_threads.dll fails to build; libssh.dll builds successfully. However, lib\libssh.dll.a is never generated. The exact version of MinGW used is listed on the wiki page. http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/wiki:development:build-howto-mswin:x2goclient… It's the same version as QT 4.8.6 tells you to install, except it's "rev4" instead of "rev3". See attachment. -Mike#2

What I (Mike#2) will focus on over the next few months
by Michael DePaulo 07 Sep '14

07 Sep '14

Hi guys, I've started investigating or working on multiple tasks, but never finished them. These are going to be my priorities for the next few months: 1. Fixing any major bugs/regressions in X2Go Client for Windows before we release 4.0.3.0 (due next month probably.) 2. Providing any security fixes for 3rd party components in X2Go Client for Windows. 3. Getting any GNOME3 compatibility fixes/packages into Debian 8 Jessie, Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn, and Fedora 21. I will prioritize those distros in that order. 4. Adding support for new desktop environments in X2Go before we release X2Go Client 4.0.3.0. (See this email thread.) http://lists.x2go.org/pipermail/x2go-dev/2014-August/007929.html 5. Upstreaming the Pageant support patch for libssh 0.6.x (see bug: #590). -Mike#2

Bug#590: The patch, and upstreaming it
by Michael DePaulo 07 Sep '14

07 Sep '14

The changelog mentions the work that I and my friend (Mike Frederick) did on the Pageant patch to port it from libssh-0.5.x to libssh-0.6.3. The libssh-0.6.3 version of the patch is here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/implem… I will try to upstream it. It was rough around the edges previously, and it still is. We will probably have to revise it in order to get it upstreamed. Hence why I put the git commit hash in the patch name; it's the way of denoting the exact patch version. The source code is here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/libssh… And the binary + headers are in a .zip here: http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh-modified-by-x2g… -Mike#2

Bug#597: Text in NSIS Windows installers is still not being rendered properly when version strings are long
by Michael DePaulo 07 Sep '14

07 Sep '14

Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.2.1+hotfix1+build4 Severity: minor tags + build-win32 Bug #528 was not fixed completely: http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=528 Screenshot: http://imgur.com/tCeeFsW At least this only affects the end of the installer, but it still looks unprofessional.

Bug#595: Create PortableApps version of X2Go Client
by Michael DePaulo 05 Sep '14

05 Sep '14

Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.2.1 Severity: wishlist For those familiar with PortableApps, the title says it all. For those unfamiliar, note that PortableApps is more than just "here's a portable edition of your app." There is a framework you have to integrate with. It does not look very hard though, the PortableApps framework basically wraps around your app. http://portableapps.com/development http://portableapps.com/development/portableapps.com_format
