Bug#932909: Bug #932909: xchroot/2.7.5-1 [ITP] -- extended chroot with X11/Xorg forwarding



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear Bart Martens,
Dear mentors,

I have now applied the necessary changes for package "xchroot" to get sponsored:

  https://mentors.debian.net/package/xchroot

dget -xu https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/x/xchroot/xchroot_2.7.5-1.dsc

  Changes since the last upload:

The changelog now contains only one entry with reference to making the ITP bug #721447 closed. Version number is -1 as required.

version 2.7.5 has a more robust xauth mechanism and fixes a fallacy when X-authorization is given on a per user or local basis rather than by a MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1: Now xchroot can generate the cookie on the fly if none is encountered:
