====== Archived X2Go Packages for Fedora GNU/Linux ======

<note>This information is only intended for use with the X2Go repositories. If you use the official Fedora repositories, please refer to their documentation and infrastructure.</note>

Alongside with the instructions on the [[wiki:repositories:fedora|main Fedora repository page]], we provide a repository archive for archived X2Go Fedora packages for deprecated Fedora "releases". These are provided in the state they were in after their last successful build. This repository is not updated at all, other than when a new Fedora release version is deprecated.

===== Adding the Archived X2Go Repository to your Package System =====

Download the .repo file and save it to the correct location:
<code bash>
wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/x2go-archives.repo \
 https://archives.packages.x2go.org/fedora/x2go.repo
</code>

For reference, the file will also be inlined here, with the original information being available on [[https://archives.packages.x2go.org/fedora/x2go.repo]]:

{{url>https://archives.packages.x2go.org/fedora/x2go.repo 720px|Archived Fedora X2Go repository definition file}}

Edit this file with your preferred editor.

<code bash>
$ editor /etc/yum.repos.d/x2go-archives.repo
</code>

Refer to [[wiki:repositories:fedora#adding_the_x2go_repository_to_your_package_system|the Fedora instructions]] regarding the naming scheme and what needs to be enabled.

==== Post-Addition Test ====

Now you can search for archived X2Go related packages that are now available for your system via ''yum'' or ''dnf'', whatever is appropriate for your system:

<code bash>
$ yum search x2go
</code>

or

<code bash>
$ dnf search x2go
</code>

Congratulations, you are now able to access the archived X2Go packages. You may continue by installing ''x2goserver-xsession'', ''x2goclient'' or ''pyhoca-gui'' or any other of the available packages.

===== Mirroring This Repository =====

The packages in this repository can be mirrored via ''rsync'':

<code>
rsync -avP archives.packages.x2go.org::fedora </dest/path/of/local/mirror/fedora-archives>
</code>
