Subject: Drop Xinerama / LD_LIBRARY_PATH related code from x2goruncommand for nxagent >= 3.5.99.0
From: Mike Gabriel <[email-masked]>
To: [email-masked]

Package: x2goserver
Severity: normal
Version: 4.1.0.0-preview

As the Xinerama magic will be soon moved from libNX_Xinerama.so into  
the programs/Xserver/hw/nxagent code, all Xinerama specifc stuff in  
x2goruncommand becomes obsolete if nxagent >= 3.5.99.0 is used  
server-side.

The nxagent >= 3.5.99.0 will be able to handle Xinerama stuff all by  
itself. No external xinerama.conf is required, applications running  
server-side can use the X.Org client libraries, no hack for injecting  
libNX_X11, libNX_Xext and libNX_Xinerama into the library path is  
needed anymore. In fact, the libNX_Xinerama library will be dropped  
completely in nx-libs >= 3.5.99.0 (aka 3.6.x).
