Thanks for this excellent software!
Something strange happens when I try to update xpra on Ubuntu 16.04. My
usual steps produce an error message that makes me think the problem is
somewhere at winswitch.org. Is it? (If not, what should I do?) Here's
what I see:
$ sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
The following packages will be upgraded:
xpra
1 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Hi,
This update contains a large number of fixes, but none of them are
critical. There is no urgency to update if you are not affected by these
issues.
The webcam forwarding fixes are probably the most noticeable ones.
There are a number of packaging fixes: workarounds for OSX El Capitan
(where root is not really root..), some FreeBSD fixes, etc
Because of the longer than average gap with the previous update and this
one, there are quite a few library updates (ffmpeg, pillow, gstreamer,
etc) and also some RPM packaging updates (trying to workaround some
Fedora conflicts, naming updates).
One long-standing bug still present in this release is the SSH password
mode with OSX clients, this is finally fixed in the current beta release
but may not get applied to the v0.17.x branch because the change would
be too intrusive. Until then, use SSH keys, TCP mode, or try the beta
builds.
Release notes:

* fix internal error with some values for the window title option
