Hi all,
Again I seem to have made some wrong assumptions. After closer
inspection, it seems that the windows x2goclient isn't fully statically
linked. It seems that only the Qt libraries have been linked against
statically. I believe that was probably done by doing a manual build of
Qt using "configure -static" (note that I've never compiled Qt myself
from source, so I'm just copying this blindly from the "Deploying an
Application on Windows" page in the Qt 4.8 documentation on the
qt-project.org web site). Since I just use the downloaded Qt
distribution for MinGW, I probably can't reproduce this without
compiling a static version of Qt myself.
Apart from the static linking of Qt libraries, I think I have now more
or less created a usable build of the x2goclient, using the instructions
below (enhanced from what I posted before).
I'll now try to add HTTP proxy support (using corkscrew) into this.

Download MingW installer from:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-inst/
get the latest mingw-get-inst-*.exe file
Run the installer, install in C:\sw\MinGW after installation, run
C:\sw\MinGW\msys\1.0\msys.bat (or open the shortcuts in your start
menu/desktop if you installed any)
cd /c/sw/MinGW/msys/1.0/postinstall
sh ./pi.sh
Create c:\home
On My Computer->Properties->Advanced->Environment Variables, set
HOME=c:\home
Create C:\home\.profile
PATH=$PATH:/c/sw/Qt/4.8.1/bin
export PATH
Download QT from:
http://releases.qt-project.org/qt4/source/qt-win-opensource-4.8.1-mingw.exe
install in c:\sw\Qt
Make sure to point to the MinGW installation used above.
Download libssh and libz from:
http://winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/repository-4.8/win32libs/libssh-x86-mingw4-0.5.2-1-bin.tar.bz2
http://winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/repository-4.8/win32libs/libssh-x86-mingw4-0.5.2-1-lib.tar.bz2
http://winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/repository-4.8/win32libs/zlib-x86-mingw4-1.2.5-1-bin.tar.bz2
http://winkde.org/pub/kde/ports/win32/repository-4.8/win32libs/zlib-x86-mingw4-1.2.5-1-lib.tar.bz2
(libssh seems to be very hard to compile on mingw. Its build-system is
based on CMake, which I don't think is available on mingw. The KDE
people have done the hard work however, so we use their results)
cd /usr/local
tar zxf .../path/to/libssh-x86-mingw4-0.5.2-1-bin.tar.bz2
tar zxf .../path/to/libssh-x86-mingw4-0.5.2-1-lib.tar.bz2
tar zxf .../path/to/zlib-x86-mingw4-1.2.5-1-bin.tar.bz2
tar zxf .../path/to/zlib-x86-mingw4-1.2.5-1-lib.tar.bz2
Build a custom version of openssl ("mingw-get install msys-openssl"
doesn't seem to install a compatible version, as static linking doesn't
work with that one).
Download OpenSSL from:
http://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-1.0.1c.tar.gz
cd ~
tar zxf /path/to/openssl-1.0.1c.tar.gz
cd openssl-1.0.1c
./configure mingw --prefix=/usr/local
make
make install
(make install takes a long time, it installs like 10K man pages,
somebody could probably find out how to install this without man pages
in order to speed this up)
Download x2goclient source code from:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/x2goclient/x2goclient_3.99.2.0.tar.gz
cd ~
tar zxf /path/to/x2goclient_3.99.2.0.tar.gz
cd x2goclient_3.99.2.0
Edit x2goclient.pro file
Replace the part that says:
win32-* {
message(building $$TARGET for windows without ldap and cups)
LIBS += -lwinspool -lws2_32
CONFIG += static release
}
with:
win32-* {
message(building $$TARGET for windows without ldap and cups)
INCLUDEPATH += /usr/local/include
LIBPATH += /usr/local/lib
LIBS += -lssl -lcrypto -lwinspool -lws2_32
CONFIG += static release
QMAKE_LFLAGS += -static-libstdc++
}
make build_client
Create a new distribution directory C:\myx2goclient
Copy into this directory:
- From the install directory of the official x2goclient distribution
- pulse directory
- VcXsrv directory
- bash.exe, cyg*.dll files, ncproxy.exe, sftp.exe, sftp-server.exe
sh.exe, ssh-add.exe, sshd.exe ssh-keygen.exe
- c:/sw/mingw/bin/libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll
- c:/sw/mingw/bin/mingwm10.dll
- c:/sw/mingw/msys/1.0/local/bin/libssh.dll
- c:/sw/mingw/msys/1.0/local/bin/libz.dll
- c:/sw/Qt/4.8.1/bin/{QtCore4,QtGui4,QtNetwork4,QtSvg4}.dll
- The new x2goclient.exe binary we produced in
/.../x2goclient_3.99.2.0/client_build/release
