[X2Go-Dev] X2Go server source tree changes

[Mike Gabriel]

Hi all,

those of you you have been following the commits on X2Go server  
(x2goserver.git) these days, will have noticed that the commit diffs  
are quite massive.

I am currently restructuring the whole x2goserver project and I am  
migrating the whole Perl code into a proper Perl API (X2Go::Server).

Main reason: I need quite a few of the X2Go server-side commands for a  
proper implementation of a Perl based X2Go session broker. And instead  
of having to install the server packages on hosts that do not  
necessarily have to be an X2Go server, I rather prefer to have the  
Perl API installable via separate packages.

So, the Debian/Ubuntu users of X2Go will notice that the x2goserver  
package will not upgrade on ,,apt-get upgrade'' (if the nightly repos  
is in your APT sources). This is because it depends on new packages  
yet to be installed on your X2Go server system (libx2go-*-perl).

Currently, I want to encourage you staying away from the x2goserver*  
packages in the nightly builds, they may be a little buggy, although I  
always intend to have a working Git master branch at the end of the day.

I'll give notice when the X2Go::Server Perl package transition is  
fully complete (probably by the end of the week).

Greets,
Mike
