New gains of this version of ,,x2gothinclient'' are:

  o depend upon nodm instead of lightdm (unless using the MATE minidesktop
    feature) for dependency reasons
  o updated dependencies for buster
  o updated USB mount script
  o fixed X2Go Client desktop link (MATE minidesktop)
  o systemd support for the cdmanager and displaymanager
  o miscellaneous packaging and visual changes

 .
   [ Mihai Moldovan ]
   * New upstream release (1.5.0.1):
     - management/etc/x2gothinclient_settings: remove heuler from apt line.
     - management/etc/x2gothinclient_settings: add "extras" component.
     - misc: update copyright notices.
     - misc manpages: pre-release version and date updates.
   * usbmount/x2gousbmount:
     - Whitespace- and comment-only changes.
     - Rework x2gothinclientd check.
     - Remove uni_xlate from ntfs and vfat mounts, add utf8 option to vfat
       mounts and document this choice.
   * debian/control:
     + Add hicolor-icon-theme as an alternative to nuvola-icon-theme.
     + Replace lightdm dependency with nodm for now. This breaks MMD! Nodm is a
       bad choice in general, but lightdm has "dependency problems" (requires a
       package that provides the logind virtual package) and is apparently "too
       big". However, nodm is stale software and upstream considered replacing
       it with a lightdm wrapper, so let's see where that gets us...

   * New upstream release (1.5.0.1):
   * usbmount/x2gousbmount:
     - Pull (most) changes from doc:howto:tce wiki page.
 .
   [ Mike Gabriel ]
   * New upstream release (1.5.0.1):
     - 19_x2gothinclient-minidesktop.gschema.override: Explicitly use MATE-
       specific theming of the desktop UI. (Fixes: #1364).
     - Install minidesktop's background SVG to DATADIR and symlink to it in
       ETCDIR.
     - Provide empty/dummy FreeRDPv2 known_hosts2 file if not
       already there.
     - management/share/etc/x2gothinclient_init.d/010_x2gothinclient-fresh-home:
       Make X2Go Client desktop link executable, so that it becomes a real
       desktop link.
     - minidesktop/init/: Drop init script for mini desktop variant. Always been
       a no-op script.
     - Provide systemd service files for x2gothinclient-cdmanager and
       x2gothinclient-displaymanager.
     - init scripts: Use /run rather than /var/run for placing PID files.
     - minidesktop: Rename LTSP display manager override script to 88-... (from
       60-...). As suggested by Alkis Georgopoulos.
   * debian/rules:
     + Convert to pure debhelper rules file.
     + Remove Qt5 build cruft from cdmanager/powerej/.
   * debian/control:
     + Prefer lightdm over nodm for the minidesktop variant. With lightdm
       the minidesktop is set-up out of the box.
     + Add Rules-Requires-Root: field and set it to "no".
     + Bump Standards-Version: to 4.4.1. No changes needed.
     + Don't use first person plural pronoun in LONG_DESCRIPTION.
     + Add D (any bin:pkg reported by lintian): lsb-base.
   * debian/{control,x2gothinclient.<scripts>}:
     + Drop all transitional packages.
   * debian/x2gothinclient-minidesktop.init:
     + Drop init script, never had functionality.
   * debian/x2gothinclient-*.serivce:
     + Symlink to upstream files.
