ok, i just removed them.
yum upgrade did nothing and yum run is not a valid yum directive.
in any case, after re-installing the packages and running yum update, i now see no warnings in yum and the x2go client/server connection is running fine.

thanks again.

Yes, you should do so and then reinstall the x2goserver and x2goserver-xesssion packages. Doing so will reinstall the necessary dependencies (e.g., nxagent).

Of course, you should do so via a local console or command-line SSH, not via an X2Go session.

And if you have made any changes to files under /etc/x2go/, you should back them up 1st.

thanks for responding here.
i just ran:
yum remove x2goserver-extensions

and yum also elected to remove x2goserver, agent and xsession as dependencies. do you advise to remove all of these too?


The problem is based on these circumstances:
1. You have X2Go installed from packages.x2go.org. The version string
starts with: 4.0.1.18-0
2. The version of x2goserver in the fedora 20 updates repo has a
higher version string: 4.0.1.18-5
3. You have the package x2goserver-extensions installed from
packages.x2go.org. This is normal.
4. The x2goserver packages in Fedora 20 (both the base repo and the
updates repo) do not include the x2goserver-extensions package.

Orion,
It looks like the files that are in the packages.x2go.org
x2goserver-extensions package[1] are included in the Fedora
x2goserver[2] package, correct?
if so, I think Ura can solve this problem by removing
x2goserver-extensions, and then running yum update.

or:

yum shell
> remove x2goserver-extensions
> upgrade
> run

I could probably have the Fedora x2goserver package provide x2goserver-extensions to help with such situations.
