Dear NoMachine developers,

I would like to point you to some (new) information on NX packaging for
Debian.

Yes, when they should need to contact you (probably to get your final
permission to include them) will depend on what our development release
schedule is for 3.5.0. At the moment, all efforts are being ploughed
into NX 4 Beta.

First please note the ITPs for NX recently opened (ITP = Debian Intent
To Package for not-yet-in-Debian software projects):

http://bugs.debian.org/655618 (NX xcomp/proxy components)
http://bugs.debian.org (NX agent/X11/compression/proxy components)

Further more, we would like to inform you, that the NX packaging
workflow has changed a little.

X2Go upstream (http://wiki.x2go.org) has started providing ,,NX
(redistributed)'', a patched tarball of NX (nxcomp*, nxproxy, nxagent,
nxauth, nx-X11) that aims at working with X2Go _and_ free NX
implementations, very probably also with your nxserver 3.5 version.

We (again X2Go upstream) very recently also added an
enable-Xinerama-support patch to nxagent/nx-X11 which makes nxagent work
with multiple monitor-heads (recognize the limits of one head on maximize).

The ,,NX (redistributed)'' code and patch base is maintained here:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=summary

The tarballs are placed here:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/nx-libs/

The tarballs are rolled with this script:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=nx-libs.git;a=blob;f=bin/nx-tarballrelease

These tarballs (client-only for now) are then taken then for Debian
packaging.

For now only the nx-libs_3.5.0.2-lite.tar.gz ball. This will be uploaded
to Debian unstable in the near future.
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/x2go/nx-libs-lite.git;a=summary


The discussion about nx-libs_3.5.0.<redist-rev>-full.tar.gz is going on
the Debian Developer mailing list, so we will see. We hope to be able to
upload the full ,,NX (redistributed)'' code to Debian experimental for
now. For the (from our perspective) full NX code+patch base, there is
not packaging repository on Alioth, yet.

Thanks for taking your time, hope this mail reaches the appropriate
people in your business.

The Debian Packaging Team for ,,NX (redistributed)'' can be contacted here:

Dear Mike,

Thank you for submitting this! We really appreciate the contributions.

At a glance, the patch for copy and paste of UTF8 text certainly looks
interesting. Also, patches to enable Xinerama and the update of auto tools files could be interesting too.

We will certainly need to review and test carefuly before we can
decide to accept the patches officially.

All the patches related directly to improving NX-x11 and nxagent
and how they improve NX technology that NoMachine releases will be looked at. For example, our developers will certainly look at:

017_nx-x11_update-autotools-helper-files.patch
018_nx-x11_update-libtool-ltmain-script.patch
019_nx-x11_expat-build-against-system-libxmltok.patch

106_nxagent_utf8-copy-clipboard.patch
107_nxagent_clipboard-compound-text+small-bed-sheets.patch
108_nxagent_wine-close-delay.patch
109_nxagent_locale-utf8-compound-text.patch
110_nxagent_createpixmap-bounds-check.patch

202_nx-x11_enable-xinerama.patch

If we have any further questions, we will contact you.

Thanks once again!

Kind regards,

The NoMachine Team
