fedora
Calendar Grey June 30, 2015
Dist Fedora Esm H88
The CUPS backend integration for X2Go in Fedora 22 undergoes significant upgrades, enhancing both security protocols and performance metrics for all users.
* New upstream version (3.0.1.2): - cups-x2go{,.conf}: port to File::Temp

Summary

X2Go is a server based computing environment with

- session resuming

- low bandwidth support

- session brokerage support

- client side mass storage mounting support

- audio support

- authentication by smartcard and USB stick

CUPS backend for printing from X2Go.

Update Information:

* New upstream version (3.0.1.2): - cups-x2go{,.conf}: port to File::Temp. Use Text::ParseWords to split up the ps2pdf command line correctly. Don't use system() but IPC::Open2::open2(). Capture the ps2pdf program's stdout and write it to the temporary file handle "manually". Should fix problems reported by Jan Bi on IRC. - cups-x2go: fix commented out second ps2pdf definition to output PDF data to stdout. * New upstream version (3.0.1.3): - cups-x2go: import tempfile() function from File::Temp module. - cups-x2go: only repeat the last X, not the whole ".pdfX" string (or the like.) - cups-x2go: actually print "real" executed command instead of the "original" one with placeholders. - cups-x2go: read output from ghostscript, don't write a filehandle to the temporary file. Fixes a hanging ghostscript call and... well... random junk, instead of a "real" PDF file. - cups-x2go: use parentheses around function arguments. - cups-x2go: fix binmod...
