Hi Stefan,

During my debug session, I noticed that these two packages:

Please try the NX packages from the heuler Repos. We have re-engineered building NX packages for Debian/Ubuntu. The heuler packages should be fully compatible with FreeNX. Though the nxagent/nxauth binaries are not yet tested.

If you encounter any problems with those, please report that here.

So I should add
deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian squeeze heuler
to my sources.list, is that correct?


So I tried uninstalling and reinstalling them.
Trying to uninstall them, I got a warning that this would uninstall the FreeNX packages as well, so I repackaged all of the named packages (freenx freenx-media, freenx-session-launcher, freenx-rdp, freenx-server, freenx-vnc, nxagent, x2goserver-printing, x2goserver-extensions, x2goserver, x2goagent) using dpkg-repack just to be safe.

Ok... should not be needed with the NX packages in the heuler Repos.

After that, I proceeded with the uninstall/reinstall and re-added the FreeNX packages.

From what repos do you install FreeNX, I would like to cross-check your experience.

I had used
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/freenx-team/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/freenx-team/ppa/ubuntu intrepid main

but it seems they are broken:
apt-get install --reinstall freenx
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Reinstallation of freenx is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.

I think I saw a message mentioning errors with this repository on the freenx-knx mailing list a short while ago, but hadn't bothered, as I kept local copies of the required *.deb files...

Trying
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/freenx-team/ppa/ubuntu lucid main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/freenx-team/ppa/ubuntu lucid main

does pull new freenx*.deb packages, but not libxcompext3:
apt-get install --reinstall libxcompext3
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Reinstallation of libxcompext3 is not possible, it cannot be downloaded.

Trying to find out which libxcompext3 my system knows about, I tried this:
apt-cache show libxcompext3| egrep '(Maintainer|Version|Filename)'

With the following result (Newlines added for clarity):

Maintainer: Ubuntu MOTU Developers <[email protected]>
Version: 1:3.5.0-1-0ubuntu1
Filename: pool/main/n/nxcompext/libxcompext3_3.5.0-1-0ubuntu1_i386.deb

Version: 1:3.5.0-1-2
Maintainer: Oleksandr Shneyder <[email protected]>
Filename: pool/main/libx/libxcompext3/libxcompext3_3.5.0-1-2_i386.deb

Maintainer: Oleksandr Shneyder <[email protected]>
Version: 1:3.5.0-1-0~x2go-bpo1+lenny~main~36~build1

The last one doesn't show a "Filename" entry and seems to be the one currently installed on my system, judging by the matching " 1:3.5.0-1-0~x2go-bpo1+lenny~main~36~build1".

I'm anything but an expert on how to interpret this output. Please let me know if there are any specific commands I should try that might provide further helpful info.


Kind Regards,
Stefan
