Subject: X2Go Client for Windows with libssh-0.5.x: cannot connect to hpn-enabled SSH servers
Date: Tue, 2 Sep 2014 18:31:49 +0200
[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: x2goclient
Version: some future release

Hi,

I'd like to request an update of libssh to version 0.6.x for the
Windows build of the X2Go Client software.
The current Windows builds which are shipped with libssh-0.5.5 have a
connection problem with hpn-enabled openssh servers [1].
We at Gentoo already faced the same problem a while ago [2].

The problem looks like this:
After a successful login with libssh-0.5.x to the hpn-enabled
openssh server the connection just hangs. There's no further data being
transferred from or to the server. This results in the X2Go Client to
hang as well.
After upgrading libssh to version 0.6.x the problem disappears.

Alex,

Do you have time to try to build libssh 0.6.3 like you did for 0.5.5?
If not, I'll try to do so over the next week or 2.

Like before, you need to incorporate the pageant patch:
http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=448
However, it does not apply cleanly. Many of the hunks fail. You are
much better at C programming than I am.

The 2 other patches (libssh-0.5.x-accept-forward.patch &
libssh-0.5.x-unblock.patch) have been upstreamed.

Subject: The patch, and upstreaming it
Date: Sat, 6 Sep 2014 21:57:32 -0400
The changelog mentions the work that I and my friend (Mike Frederick)
did on the Pageant patch to port it from libssh-0.5.x to libssh-0.6.3.

The libssh-0.6.3 version of the patch is here:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/implement-support-for-putty-s-pageant-0.6.3-de62963.patch

I will try to upstream it. It was rough around the edges previously,
and it still is. We will probably have to revise it in order to get it
upstreamed. Hence why I put the git commit hash in the patch name;
it's the way of denoting the exact patch version.

The source code is here:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/libssh-0.6.3-de62963-pageant-support.src.zip

And the binary + headers are in a .zip here:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh-modified-by-x2go-project/libssh-0.6.3-de62963-pageant-support-mingw4.4.0.zip

Hi Mike#1,

Should libssh.dll be built with zlib support? My 0.6.3 build is, while
Alex's 0.5.5 build is not.

I'd say yes. I presume without linking against zlib, SSH compression  
support won't be available via libssh. But I am just guessing.

With Python X2Go, I have disabled all compression features in  
Paramiko/SSH, because the compression should rather take place (and  
does) in NX. So dropping compression in SSH brings some server-side  
relaxation on the CPU, I hope. I did not do any benchmarking on this,  
though. With Telekinesis/mTelePlayer the subjective impression is that  
it speeds up things on large videos.

Greets,
Mike

Subject: more zlib details
Date: Mon, 8 Sep 2014 08:55:07 -0400
Control: retitle -1 reintroduce zlib support for libssh in X2Go Client
for Windows

History:

With libssh-0.5.2 (built by the KDE Windows project), zlib support was included:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh/libssh-x86-mingw4-0.5.2-1-bin.zip
It used "libz.dll" 1.2.7

With libssh-0.5.5 (built by Alex), zlib support was not included:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/3rd-party/libssh/libssh-with-pagent.patch/libssh-0.5.5.zip

Now with libssh-0.6.3 (built by me), zlib support was reintroduced.
"zlib1.dll" 1.2.3 was already being shipped by us.
It was linked against the headers for 1.2.8.

What I will do:

I will update zlib1.dll to 1.2.8. 1.2.3 does not lack any security
updates. However it isn't supported, only the latest 1.2.x release is.
http://www.zlib.net/
http://zlib.net/zlib128-dll.zip

Also, it appears that nothing was using libz.dll since the upgrade to
libssh-0.5.5, and that nothing was using zlib1.dll until the upgrade
to libssh-0.6.3. Therefore, I will delete libz.dll.

Ignore my last email's comments about libz.dll. libzip.dll (from the
KDE windows project) still depends on it. Therefore, I will keep
libz.dll.
