[Trisquel-users] X2Go : client available, server is not ?

[y***@rendaosolutions.com]

Hi,

I noticed that Synaptic contains the x2goclient package, bu not the
xtgoserver
package.
Does the server package contain non free code, or is it just a security thing
?

Would it be safe to use the Debian repository containing x2goserver ?

I am using Anydesk for the moment but would like to switch to a GPL solution.

Brgds,
Yvo.

It's not available in Trisquel yet, because it's not available in the version
of Ubuntu it's based on. x2goserver is present only in Ubuntu 18.04 right
now, so it will become available in the next version of Trisquel, which is
9.0 LTS.

I don't think there's any freedom issue with this package. It's not listed in
the NONFSDG list:
