Thanks for your input. I've installed ltsp-server-standalone and ltsp-client from the backports (ldm was already the latest version). Nevertheless, on a first try I've got the same error message. I've tried several things and finally ltsp was running. I'm not quite sure what exactly made the difference but it could be that apt-get -t jessie-backports upgrade ... solved the problem. Now, when running ltsp-update-image --cleanup / I get a nice image and (almost) everything is fine. However, is there a way to make an image including symlinks? Some parts of my home-directory (e.g. some virtualbox stuff) is located in a separate partition which is mounted to /mnt/home2 and I use symlinks to connect to this mount. Many thanks in advance.
