Dear X2Go Support,
I'm writing to you because I was expecting that the latest release of X2Go based on *Qt5* as I can see it on the web page...

If I check the Help/About Qt information, I can see that the Qt version is *4.8.6*...

I have installed the latest version of X2Go, which is v4.1.2.3 I believe.
Could you please let me know if there is a version available based on Qt5?
Many thanks in advance, Mike
The X2Go Client in Debian has been built against Qt5. Please check [1] for how to switch to Qt5 build.

Many thanks for your input! I'm familiar with Debian, but I would need more info about how to apply the patch exactly. Is there any step-by-step instructions?
On the other hand, is it only for Debian or available for Windows client as well?
Thanks, Mike
I have been on VAC for the past two weeks and don't check emails while
on holidays, normally. Sorry, that you had to wait for my reply.
Patching a Debian src:pkg is easy.
Drop a patch that applies to the upstream code into debian/patches and
add the patch file's name to debian/patches/series.
You can use quilt for managing patches: https://wiki.debian.org/UsingQuilt
Building the Windows X2Go Client against Qt5 is on the X2Go team's todo list.
Mike
