Hello, all.  I've gone the git clone route however I do not see the
mounts in my X2Go server for printing or file sharing.  I am still using
x2goserver 3.0.1-5.  Before I spend time troubleshooting, I thought I'd
ask if there is no backwards compatibility between the proposed new
client and the old server for file and print.  Thanks - John
