[X2Go-Dev] Bug#818: x2goserver: client-side folder sharing broken on Ubuntu 10.04

[Mike Gabriel]

Package: x2goserver
Severity: normal
Version: 4.0.1.19

Hi all,

x2goserver: client-side folder sharing is broken on Ubuntu 10.04 since
X2Go Server 4.0.1.19.

REASON:
-------

I just discovered that the "timeout" command that we have started
using in /usr/bin/x2gomountdirs since 4.0.1.19 of X2Go Server is
normally shipped via the essential .deb package "coreutils". Normally,
it is not necessary to add dependencies for essential packages.

However, on Ubuntu 10.04, the timeout command is not shipped with the
coreutils package but with a separate package called "timeout". There
you have to explicitly install the "timeout" .deb package.

So, basically in X2Go Server's debian/control file we need to add

timeout | coreutils,

under Depends: of bin:package x2goserver.

However, as Ubuntu 10.04 will reach End of Life probably before the
next X2Go Server release will come out, I am unsure if we should still
change this.

Please other devs give feedback,
Mike

Ubuntu 10.04 has by far reached EOL. Thus closing this bug report.
