people, if not everyone. The "full" set makes the installer take much
longer and adds lots more files to the filesystem, so I'd rather not
make that the default.)
c. I'll probably integrate them into the regular installer as an
optional component, instead of putting them in a separate installer.
This means that the installer will be 48.5 MB in size with solid lzma
compression (compared to 56.0 MB with zlib compression.) However, in
2014, I think that 48.5 MB is reasonable.

How about this:

We set up a new X2Go subproject called

  x2go-xfonts.git

This subproject contains _all_ extra fonts and mainly is an NSIS installer.

This installer can be used to install those extra fonts into the correct directory for X2Go Client _and_ for PyHoca-GUI.

The user/admin can install if he/she wants to install the fonts at both locations (%ProgramFiles%\x2golient, %ProgramFiles%\PyHoca-GUI) or only at one of them.

The X2Go Client setup.exe should remain rather minimal IMHO.

Do not expect the permanent fix to arrive in time for 4.0.2.1.

Absolutely fine!

Mike
