x2goserver.git/x2goserver/lib/ for the 3.1.1.x release series (Git branch).Note that in current master I currently refactor the code into proper Perl modules. This will be easier to fork for user space X2Go, I presume. I'd recommend to stick to the 3.1.1.x stuff for now.
If I want to provide a patch for upstream, I should probably look there.
If you want to provide a patch, then you have to handle the Perl module based code in the master branch, I guess. However, this is in the middle of transition, currently.
Since the install procedure might put quite a lot of (even unrelated) things into /usr/lib/ , may I ask whether there is (apart from the debian binary installation procedure) some script or Makefile that is responsible for putting everything in place?
Yes, there is a Makefile: x2goserver.git/x2goserver/Makefile
In fact, I'd like to know what the usual way to *compile* and to *install* x2goserver (or anything that I would need for userspace installation) actually is. I'd like to start compiling and installing x2goserver from the git repository sources as foouser in his $HOME. So as a first step I'd like to disregard all debian specific installation parts.
$ git clone git://code.x2go.org/x2goserver.git $ cd x2goserver $ make && sudo make install
Am I right that x2goserver uses the standard cd x2goserver; ./configure && make && make install
No configure script, yet!!!
? The INSTALL file in that directory doesn't say something about "configure", but that's probably because it refers to the enduser that extracts x2goserver from a tar.gz file and not from the git repository.
The enduser hopefully can install X2Go server from one of the available distro archives...
Anyway, I'll probably have to introduce a configure file to later allow "--prefix=/installation/directory" as argument. Can upstream live with that our should it rather be avoided?
If the configure file works for system-wide installations, then yes.I guess, that you are aware that you have to test both cases (user space X2Go and system-wide X2Go). So, I guess, now it is time to power up your virtualization software and get x2goserver installed before starting to re-code it.
