Public bug reported: Ubuntu realease: 24.04 "noble" Package version affected: xpra* 3.1.5+dfsg1-0.2ubuntu1
Expected behavior: Running an X11 aplication remotely works as usual by: # ssh -p $PORT $USER@$HOST xpra start :$SOCKET-NO --start-child="$1" --exit-with-children # xpra attach ssh://$USER@$HOST:$PORT/$SOCKET-NO and the exported window is way more reactive than X11 forwarding What actually happens: After successfully attaching (the client) to a running xpra socket (the server), the client keeps crashing and restarting in an endless loop. Window updates (redrawing) and reactions to user input are only happening in the milliseconds between each restart and crash. Each crash produces the error message: AttributeError: module 'PIL.Image' has no attribute 'ANTIALIAS' This makes xpra essentially unusable. Apparent reason: xpra version (3.1.5+dfsg1-0.2ubuntu1) in noble got incompatible with the included version of python3-pil (10.2.0-1ubuntu1) According to (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/76616042/attributeerror-module-pil- image-has-no-attribute-antialias), new version of PIL (10.0.0) has no ANTIALIAS, as it's deprecated. Apparent solution: Upgrading xpra to Version 5.0.10 I successfully tested xpra upstream version 5.0.10-r0-1 from https://xpra.org/dists/noble . It runs flawlessly out of the box. CAVEAT: Note that newer versions (6.x.x) raise lots of errors that point to a communication problem with gnome appindicator.
