Dear all,

the X2Go project is proud to announce a new release of the X2Go

New gains of this version of ,,python-x2go'' are:

   o Python3 port of the module (still supporting recent Python2.x versions)
   o Conversion of __doc__ strings from Epydoc to Sphinx
   o Support enabling Xinerama in X2Go Sessions

Please find the refurbished API documentation at:

    [ Mike Gabriel ]
    * New upstream version (0.6.0.0):
      - Support Python2 and Python3 alike.
      - Test intensively against Debian stable and unstable.
        (Fixes these bug report(s): #1275).
      - Build API doc with Sphinx.
      - Drop unit test framework. Never really used (though we should have).
        (Fixes these bug report(s): #1259).
      - x2go/checkhosts.py: Python3 fix in get_key_fingerprint().
      - Natively support xinerama option.
      - x2go/backends/terminal/plain.py: x2gosession-resume handles
        xinerama support differently from x2gostartagent. Adding it
        as cmdline parameter No. 9.
      - x2go/utils.py: Python3 fix in get_workarea_geometry().
      - Finalize Epydoc-to-Sphinx conversion of doc strings.
      - x2go/session.py: Update list of features.
      - x2go/__init__.py: Reference backends correctly.
      - Drop WINREG backends, never existed really, never will be, probably.
      - x2go/__init__.py: Avoid ares resolver for now, as it currently is
        broken in Debian testing.
      - Makefile.docupload: Add apidoc target.
      - docs/source/: Update API doc tree, winreg modules removed.
    * debian/:
      + Adapt to building Python3 and Python2 variants of Python X2Go.
      + Adapt to building API docs with Sphinx.

    * New upstream version (0.6.0.0):
      - docs/source/conf.py: set minimum sphinx version to 1.0. Needed for
        the sphinx.ext.viewcode extension.
      - docs/source/conf.py: drop minimum sphinx version requirement again,
        detect version manually and adapt config based on this information.
      - docs/source/conf.py: fix parse error due to wrong else usage.
      - docs/source/conf.py: import sphinx module. Hopefully that  
actually works
        out.
    * python-x2go.spec:
      - Also add fdupes package as a build dependency for RHEL-based distros.
      - Correctly pythonize package, for Fedora, RHEL/EPEL and OpenSuSE. It's
        more verbose than needs to be, but OpenSuSE Leap 42.2 - which is still
        supported currently - does not have python-rpm-macros and we generally
        want to disable the Python 3 package for now. For EPEL/RHEL versions
        lower than 8, we strip Python 3 stuff out completely and rename the
        package to python-x2go.
      - Fix package names in %package (and its %description) and  
%files sections.
      - Add dependency on the python-configparser backport. Makes at least part
        working with both Python 2 and 3.
      - Actually disable python3 builds on OpenSuSE.
      - OpenSuSE Leap 15 and TumbleWeed renamed python-xlib to
        python{2,3}-python-xlib.
      - Local %defines are buggy in older RPM implementations, work around by
        using %global instead.
      - Merge python(2)-x2go section in main section, since we cannot redefine
        subpackages.
      - Older OpenSuSE Leap versions don't support %{python2_sitelib} - use
        %{python_sitelib} instead.
      - Document %(python_module} definitions.
      - Override python_module macro for OpenSuSE Leap 42.3, the  
shipped version
        does not what later versions do correctly.
      - %{sle_version} is not defined on TW, so use a %{suse_version} check
        additionally to catch this variant.

Mike Gabriel
