[X2Go-Dev] Patch to Fix x2goagent / nxagent With New LibCairo

[Jim Burnes]

Mike,

No problem.

You can reproduce the issue by running any recent copy of x2go/nxagent and
start any program that uses very recent versions of libCairo.  Things
started breaking for both ArchLinux and Debian SID users about 3 weeks ago.

The issues started with versions of libCairo >= libcairo2_1.12.0-2_amd64
(debian packages of course).  These versions of Cairo seem to use null
parameters in render ops a lot.   Users of recent GTK environments would
have the startup process just crash.  KDE sessions start and run fine until
you start a gtk app.

Is that enough for you to reproduce?
