Hello everyone,
I'm fairly new to x2go, but I'm trying to package X2Go Client & Server for RedHat6 and I have the following suggestion/problem:
Awesome!!!
Server: it's hard to package the X2GO Server as RPM because some paths (/etc/x2go) are hardcoded into the Makefiles and a "make PREFIX=/path install" still installs the files under /etc/x2go. Could anyone please change the Makefile so that the PREFIX option works?
You can definitely accelerate the process if you send a tested patch. Please send patches that apply for your code base in X2Go Git. To clone a project use
git clone
git://code.x2go.org/x2goserver.gitgit clone
git://code.x2go.org/x2goclient.gitetc.
Modify the code and send the output of ,,git diff'' to this mailing list.
I will take a look at the Makefiles, but if you find time to send a patch, that will probably much quicker!!!
Client: in order to compile the client I downloaded the libssh-0.5.0-1 and libssh-devel-0.5.0-1 as RPMs and installed them (it's the same library as Debian's libssh-4, just a newer Version -- the one from Debian Squeeze is the version 0.4.5-3). The client basically works, but segfaults sometimes (not always) in "exception" cases, for example false authentication to the X2GO server.
[...]
Heinz suggested that I use the x2golistsessions, x2goruncommand, x2goagent over SSH (btw, the X2GO Server runs on Ubuntu, and the other clients work OK) and log their return codes -- but how can I do that? Just SSH in to the Ubuntu server and call these 3 tools from the command line, with echo $? after?
The segfaulting seems like Alex should take a look at that. Could you send exact versions (of every X2Go component) that you use for testing and packaging?
The manual testing with x2gostartagent, x2goruncommand etc. is possible but I cannot explain that without digging into the client code.
@Heinz+Alex: if you can provide a manual session startup workflow, could you please document that in the wiki???
Thanks+Greets,
Mike
