[X2Go-Dev] Bug#725: client-side printing terminates X2Go Client (+ running session) in certain cases

[Mike Gabriel]

Package: x2goclient
Severity: grave
Tag: patch

I have just found a patch for X2Go upstream bug #702 [1]:

What I do:
==========

  o I launch an X2Go session with X2Go Client, client-side printing  
support is enabled
  o I minimize X2Go Client to the systray icon
  o I configure X2Go Client to show the print dialog window on  
incoming print jobs
  o I print a document inside the X2Go session


What happens:
=============

The print dialog window appears. I select "Print"...

X2Go Client simply exits cleanly immediately when I click the Print  
button of the print dialog window.

The issue occurs in this combination of events:

   o print dialog appears on incoming print job
   o it doesn't matter what print action is chosen
     (pdfview, pdfsave, print, etc.)
   o X2Go Client's main window is hidden (e.g.
     via clicking on the tray icon)

What should happen:
===================

The incoming print job should get shown as PDF or printed (whatever I  
chose in the print dialog window). The print dialog window should  
disappear, my remote X2Go session should continue...


The issue is related to this:

The related upstream patch is this:
===================================
   http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=x2goclient.git;a=commitdiff;h=3008b2a


I am still waiting for feedback from another upstream dev, once it is  
there, I will fix the issue in the x2goclient src:package in Debian  
unstable and hopefully testing (jessie).
