Hi,
after setting up Qubes R4.1 Alpha on a new laptop I found that my old, restored Windows Qubes would not work anymore with R4.1, the reason being the updated qrexec protocol (from version 2 to 3). During my research on the mailing list I stumbled upon the qwt-crossbuild project by tabit-pro that addresses this and other issues. Unfortunately the software did not compile right out-of-the box. I have made some minor changes and created a github repo with the updated version:
https://github.com/uiskla/qwt-crossbuild
I made essentially the following minor changes:
With these change I have successfully built a .msi installer and
tested that with Windows 7 VMs and DVMs. GUI, qrexec, seamless
mode etc. seem to work fine. I have sent a pull request to
tabit-pro but have not received an answer yet (probably because of
the holiday season).
If you want to rebuild, here are some hints:
Kind regards
Peter
