Archived X2Go Packages for SUSE-Based Systems

This information is only intended for use with the X2Go repositories. If you use the OBS SUSE X2Go instance repositories, please refer to their documentation and infrastructure. Old packages may get purged without further notification or archival in the OBS SUSE X2Go instance.

Alongside with the instructions on the main (Open-)SUSE repository page, we provide a repository archive for archived X2Go (Open-)SUSE packages for deprecated (Open-)SUSE “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 (Open-)SUSE release version is deprecated.

Adding the Archived X2Go Repository to your Package System

Depending on whether you want to use a stable or nightly version and upon your system, choose one of the multiple options provided here.

Always replace <distro-version> with the numeric distribution version you are using. For OpenSUSE Leap, do not include the string leap.
