Hi Ralf,

it feels as if there is a misunderstanding...

Each Git projects on git.x2go.org is complete by itself and reflects
a quasi Debian-like source package so we can easily build your
packages for Debian+Ubuntu right out of Git.

So each comes with its own version number and there is no dependency
between the different sub-projects?

Indeed and no. Of course there is some sort of dependency.

For details on dependencies refer to the /debian/control file in each Git project.

Git submodule would allow to have a global tag for a consistent set of
all the subprojects.

Yes, this is right. However, I guess the amount of use cases is <= 1.

So, the issue about checking out all Gits at once is just for us
developers as we normally work on all Git projects.

Exactly.

Thus, it is very hand to clone all the X2Go upstream Git projects
locally in one blast. A shell script is sufficient for that, I
guess.

For cloning, yes. But not for tagging. But maybe you don't need or want
that.

We tag releases in Git. I am sorry, I am not seeing your point.

I actually do not want to set up a meta Git project pulling in all
other Git projects as submodules as in daily development work it does
not make much sense. Thanks for your thoughts, anyway!!!

I don't feel offended. It was just my 2 cents. I understand that a new
person cannot simply come and change the existing workflow.

Sure. However, I am curious on what else you will come up with. Normally, new people bring in good new impulses.

My problem is lack of documentation. I don't know where to start.

Point taken:

 1. use Debian or Ubuntu (we all work with Debian primarily)
 2. configure APT: http://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/download:start
 3. install x2goserver-xsession on your server (Debian/Ubuntu)
 4. instal x2goclient or pyhoca-gui on your client
 5. configure a session profile (I am sure you will find out about the fields)
 6. Start your first session

What other questions do you have? If possible, I will point you to solutions.

I'd still like to have x2go without the need to become root, but
obviously that is not too easily achievable.

As X2Go ships a complete X-Server source tree (nx-libs.git for x2goagent) it is indeed not very trivial. Maybe you have to talk to your IT provider to install you the basic X2Go packages.

Sorry about the non-user installation,
Mike
