Package: freerdp
Version: 3.27.0
apologies if this duplicates. I sent it originally to [email protected]
I am attempting to connect to a work site behind an RDP gateway. This has
been fine in the past, but fails when I upgrade to 3.27. I am using
freerd-x11 but tested it in the past with the sdl and wayland versions and
they also failed with version 3.27. Downgrading to 3.26 solves the
problem. Is a change in command syntax needed? If not, this is a serious
bug that, but for downgrading, makes the program completely unusable for me.
