====== X2Go Packages for Raspbian GNU/Linux ======

To get started you'll need to configure your local system to access the official X2Go Raspbian repository. Please keep in mind that this installation manual will guide you through the installation on a Raspbian jessie and stretch system. Only the armhf architecture is supported.


===== Adding This Repository To Your Package System =====

==== Adding the Repository GPG Keys ====

Before starting to edit your system configuration, you'll need to add the needed GPG keys of the repository. Please switch to a user which has administrator privileges on your system in your preferred command line client:

<code bash>
su -
</code>
or
<code bash>
sudo -s
</code>


The following commands will ensure that your system will be able to work with the repository archive key. We have also provided our archive key and the X2Go maintainers' keys in a keyring package called ''x2go-keyring'' (see below). If you choose to install that package you can skip these first steps...

<code bash>
$ apt-key adv --recv-keys --keyserver keys.gnupg.net E1F958385BFE2B6E
</code>

==== Adding the Actual Repository ====

Please add the file ''x2go.list'' to the folder ''/etc/apt/sources.list.d/''.
This can be done by using your preferred editor.

<code bash>
$ editor /etc/apt/sources.list.d/x2go.list
</code>

Then add the X2Go repository (binaries and sources) as a couple of new lines (example for Raspbian **stretch**):

<file - x2go.list>
# X2Go Repository (release builds)
deb http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch main
# X2Go Repository (sources of release builds)
deb-src http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch main

# X2Go Repository (Saimaa ESR builds)
#deb http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch saimaa
# X2Go Repository (sources of release builds)
#deb-src http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch saimaa

# X2Go Repository (nightly builds)
#deb http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch heuler
# X2Go Repository (sources of nightly builds)
#deb-src http://packages.x2go.org/raspbian stretch heuler
</file>

**Edit this new data** and make sure to uncomment desired components and comment non-desired components. Only one group may be active at a given time. Switching between components requires uninstalling all X2Go packages first!

**Note:** If you have not gotten a directory named ''/etc/apt/sources.list.d/'' add the lines to ''/etc/apt/sources.list''.

==== Synchronize the Newly Added Repository's Metadata ====

Please perform an update of your APT package database:

<code bash>
$ apt-get update
</code>

After the update you should be able to access the X2Go packages via the apt command family. As a first action you should install our ''x2go-keyring'' package and refresh the apt cache:

<code bash>
$ apt-get install x2go-keyring && apt-get update
</code>

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

Now you can search for X2Go related packages that are now available for your APT system:

<code bash>
$ apt-cache search x2go
</code>

Congratulations, you are now able to access the X2Go packages. You may continue by installing x2goserver, 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>
