Hi Antoine, I indeed got the change for a CentOS 6 upgrade (at least). I hope so much that the situation will become better :) (if not, as I said, it have something to do with xpra or at least a new xpra because the old version works perfectly with a newer python ob Ubuntu). Right now, I am struggling with a simple thing: # yum install xpra [...] Package xpra-0.14.11-1.el6_6.x86_64.rpm is not signed I followed http://winswitch.org/downloads/rpm-repository.html?dist_select=CentOS very closely. Can it be that the package is indeed not signed?
