Public bug reported: mosh is a remote shell updated for the realities of modern network connectivity. It supports roaming (automatically reestablishes connections if they get broken) and predictive local echo (for better perceived interactivity on high-latency connections)
Version 1.0 of mosh is currently in Debian unstable (http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mosh.html), and there are daily builds available in a PPA (https://launchpad.net/~keithw/+archive/mosh) with nearly identical packaging. The maintainer (for both Debian and upstream) has informed me that he will be releasing 1.1 in the near future, and has asked we hold off syncing until that is uploaded. Here is the current pending changelog for 1.1: 2012-03-18 Keith Winstein <mosh-de...@mit.edu> * Version 1.1 released (stable release). * Allows user to specify remote command to execute. * Only advertises 256 colors when user's terminal has 256 colors. * Add chaff to datagrams to frustrate statistical analysis of length * Cosmetic fixes to terminal handling * Improved startup script (Anders Kaseorg) In the mean time, the package has already built in Debian on all architectures except armel, armhf, and both kfreebsd architectures. I've verified that the current Debian package builds on Ubuntu without modifications (log attached), and that the resulting packages work (modulo some locale issues in my chroot) adconrad has volunteered to do the srcNEW review in exchange for cookies. Since we're late in the release process, I was hoping to get release- team approval before 1.1 actually landed so I could get this in as quickly as possible. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Wishlist Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/961807 Title: [FFe] New package mosh To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/961807/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
