Bug#827300: ITA

Hi Adrian,

sorry for the late reply!

I was recently concentrating on getting some other stuff ready to be
uploaded, because it was partially sponsored at my day job.

I am now working on this again. Be assured that both the client and
server will be updated before the freeze with enough time to test it.

It will.

what is the status of this work?

Currently Guacamole is not in testing, and therefore on course for not 
being included in stretch.

If 0.9.9 is not ready for upload soon, can you make at least the minimum 
changes for not having Guacamole dropped completely from stretch?

These would be:
- the trivial fix for #827300 (remove the -Werror from 
  src/protocols/ssh/Makefile.am)
- a fix for #832846 (I have no clue about that one, but Emmanuel or Mike
  might be able to help)
- looking at the upstream changelog, a 0.8.3 -> 0.8.4 update seems to be
  a low hanging fruit
- when doing the uploads, please also change the maintainer field
  of the packages

The perfect solution would be 0.9.9 in stretch, but having 0.8.4 in 
stretch would at least be better than not having Guacamole in stretch.
