Bug#465210: xrdp: sessvc not installed, unable to use X11rdp

[Gilles Mocellin]

Package: xrdp
Severity: normal

In the file sessman/Makefile, section installdeb, sessvc is not
installed.
So, when connecting, in the session manager, if you choose
sesman-X11rdp, there is a "file not found error".
By the way, I don't know if it works with the file...

Hi Gilles !

X11rdp is not compiled at all: it is not part of the source of xrdp 0.4.0.
To make it work, you will have to compile yourself x11rdp.

Since I understand your bug report to include sessvc for people having
compiled x11rdp themselves, I downgrade the severity of the bug report to
wishlist. If you'd like to have a package with x11rdp, fill another
wishlist bug report. However, I don't know if it is easy because the source
code currently in CVS seems not be able to handle modular Xorg.

I just discovered that sessvc is independant of x11rdp. Therefore, your
bug report is valid. If you still wish to have x11rdp, please fill
another bug report about this. I keep this bug report for missing
sessvc.

Thanks.
