Package: xpra
Version: 3.0.7+dfsg1-1
Severity: normal
I have installed xpra with no customisation (no changes to files in /etc/xpra).
xpra start --start=xclock
produces the following error message:
2020-03-29 22:54:55,346 Error: failed to write script file
'/run/user/500/xpra/run-xpra':
2020-03-29 22:54:55,347 'utf-8' codec can't encode character '\udc9d' in
position 461: surrogates not allowed
The server has been created, although /run/user/500/xpra/run-xpra
has been created as a zero-length file. The bad /run/user/500/xpra/run-xpra
file prevents remote access to the server (unless the remote user
specifies "--remote-xpra=/usr/bin/xpra").
Note that LANG=en_IE.utf8 (which is my normal setting).
I also tried LANG=C and got the same error.
/run/user/500/xpra/run-xpra has been created as a zero-length file.
The bad /run/user/500/xpra/run-xpra file also prevents remote access to the
server
unless the remote user specifies "--remote-xpra=/usr/bin/xpra"
Debug output (using "-d all"):
