Yes, yes, we know. The software is free. Every time anyone expresses concern with something like the, this is the argument that comes forth, which suddenly makes our concerns invalid if we don't suddenly know how to fix the problem ourselves in a language we're not familiar with. I am grateful for the software, but as a developer myself, I find that programmers are way too sensitive to criticism. Sometimes users get upset when glaring issues are put on the back burner while other, much less severe bugs are added to new releases. It's going to happen and it's a critical part of the feedback and development cycle. Never is "why don't you fix it yourself?" a proper response.

It's been 6 months since this report was filed (and since the last release) and even though it was acknowledged in July, it still was not fixed in the current version. Will we be stuck with this bug for another six months?
Filing and acknowledging bugs does not fix them. You get X2Go for free, thus I can see no justification for you to complain. Instead of whining you could give something back to those people who spent many hours working on X2Go for free(!). Either by providing a patch your self or by putting out a bounty.
