     - x2gobroker/brokers/inifile_broker.py: Also check for presence of 'host'

     - UCCS API change for X2Go Sessions: Rename "SessionType" to "Command".

     - Makefile.docupload: Add apidoc target (running sphinx-apidoc).
     - docs/source: Initialize Sphinx API documentation's .rst files.
     - bin/x2gobroker: If binding the http server fails, a non-zero exit code
       should be returned. (Fixes: #1013).
     - x2gobroker/loadchecker.py: Don't re-read the x2gobroker.conf during
       each cycle of the load checking loop. Rather read it on service startup
       and require a service restart when x2gobroker.conf has been changed.
     - x2gobroker/loadchecker.py: Avoid rare cases where at the end of a load
       checking cycle a negative sleep time would have been calculated.
       (Fixes: #1315). Thanks to Walid Moghrabi for catching this.
     - HTTP broker: Add &login=<server_user> support to plain and json broker
       frontends.
     - SSH broker: Add --login option. This now supports X2Go Broker user and
       X2Go Server username being different accounts.
     - bin/x2gobroker: Correctly use split_host_address() function call.
     - bin/x2gobroker: Don't override already defined logger objects, define
       them properly where needed.
     - Convert one more unicode object into (Python3) string.
     - x2gobroker/tests/test_broker_agent.py: Assure that tests are run without
       loadchecker usage.
     - broker-use-load-checker profile option: Also tolerate 'TRUE' and 'True'.
     - x2gobroker/agent.py: Fix failing execution of LOCAL broker agent. As
       the LOCAL broker agent is executed setuid root, we cannot
       Popen.terminate() (which is unneeded anyway) the process after its
       execution.
     - Ignore SSH broker events for now. Not sure if we will ever support that.
     - Finalize API documentation.
     - Fix regression flaw in x2gobroker/web/json.py, introduced by commit
       9fa371e9.

   [ Mihai Moldovan ]
   * New upstream version (0.0.4.0):
     - src/x2gobroker-{agent,ssh}.c: catch errors in setuid wrappers and add
       general return clause to make compilers happy.
     - Makefile: make sure that we actually append our custom CFLAGS and
       LDFLAGS values, even if passed in through the make command line.

     - man/*: update date and version stamps pre-release.
     - misc: add missing coding modelines.
   * x2gobroker.spec:
     - Add %debug_package macro when debugging is to be enabled, hoping that it
       will actually generate proper debuginfo (and -source) sub packages
       owning files.
     - Whitespace only.
     - Remove obsolete EPEL 5 support.
     - Switch to HTTPS-based links.
     - Use more curly braces.

     - Fix %{__global_ldflags} usage if variable does not exist.
     - Commands don't seem to work when wrapped in curly braces (at least on
       *SuSE), so revert.

Subject: broker bug with accentuated characters in password

Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2017 19:29:07 +0100 (CET)

package: x2gobroker
priority: bug

Context : I'm using PAM auth with the X2Gobroker which relies on Samba/Winbind to use ActiveDirectory based authentication.
It works pretty well but some users couldn't auth even though we triple checked their username/password combination.
It appears these users had some accentuated characters in their password so I suppose there is a charset issue there, not sure if the broker uses iso/latin encoding or UTF8.

Walid Moghrabi
