During my debug session, I noticed that these two packages:
ii libxcompext3 1:3.5.0-1-0~x2go-bpo1+lenny~main~36~build1 NX X11 protocol compression extensions library ii libxcompshad3 3.5.0-2-0~x2go-bpo1+lenny~main~24~build1 NX shadowing library

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?

Yes!


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

OK...

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.

Install with ;;apt-get install <package>=<version>'', version numbers of packages are shown when using ,,apt-cache show <package>''

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

You want the ones we built, they start with 2:3.5.0 in the version number.

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".

Yeah, this sounds weird... Please check your apt sources again, our packages files are clean, I have checked that. You seem to be pulling in packages from

deb http://packages.x2go.org/debian lenny main

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.

I would try this:

Purge everything NX'ish, X2Go'ish...
Install NX packages from packages.x2go.org squeeze heuler
Install FreeNX from Launchpad (lucid)
Install the rest of X2Go from packages.x2go.org squeeze main (or heuler)

Greets,
Mike
