We are waiting a long time. :)
My suggestion: I will drop a note on debian-devel in the thread that
discusses the nx-libs ITP. I will put you in the Cc: so that you can
inject a reply directly into the thread (with keeping all Reply-To:
fields). If you agree on that, I will post the mail today or tomorrow.
I guess it would be good to place some info about the status of freenx
and the very need for it directly there. And: maybe the willingness to
co-maintain ,,NX (redistributed)''.
Please give me your feedback if we shall proceed this way...
Once nxagent & co are in Debian, finding a sponsor for FreeNX should be surely possible. The problem is NX itself (the large Xorg 6.9 fork within it), not the packages around NX libraries and binaries.
3 years ago I spent a lot of time trying to build nxagent with stock xorg 7.0 libraries. It compiled but didn't work.
So did we. Compilation worked, but session crashes occur all over the
place... :-(
If you find some time, please take a look at ,,NX (redistributed)'' http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=summary
Is NX redistributed a bundle with every lib?
libxcomp3 (nxcomp) libxcompext3 (nxcompext) libxcompshad3 (nxcompshad) nx-X11 nxagent nxauth nxproxy
The ML language is English, of course.
No problem.
;-)
BTW: I posted the ITP mail to freenx-team@lists.launchpad.net, but it got bounced. Is the list dead?
Yes, I shut down a long time ago, because there was only spams at the time. The freenx list is https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/freenx-knx
Ok, I will subscribe to the list then...
Last question: are you FreeNX upstream? Or FreeNX packager or Ubuntu?
There is no official FreeNX upstream, for some time I did some work in launchpad, then another guy forked my branch and is still working on it. Now I use his branch as upstream.
Could you send us links for both PPAs? Thanks!
Greets Mike
