** Description changed: - Actually, the novnc package depends on nova-common or the package - provide separate components: + Currently novnc depends on nova-common, but the latter provides many + independent components, listed below: - novnc provide: - a html5 client application (js+html+css) that use websocket protocol to encapsulate vnc protocol - a python library to quickly build a websocket server for novnc - 2 websocket servers: - * a simple one: proxy one vnc tcp connection to vnc websocket - connection - * a openstack one: that retreive from nova, vnc parameters of the vms (ip, - port, auth, ...) and proxy websocket connection to their - - a some other optional small tools + * a simple one: proxy one vnc tcp connection to vnc websocket + connection + * a openstack one: that retreive from nova, vnc parameters of the vms (ip, + port, auth, ...) and proxy websocket connection to their + - a some other optional small tools And so, Users can/want to use novnc as a simple websocket vnc proxy without installing nova. So I propose to split the package with this following contents: - - novnc: /usr/share/novnc/* - - python-novnc: /usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/* - - nova-novncproxy: /usr/bin/nova-novncproxy and /etc/init.d/nova-novncproxy (instead of /etc/init.d/novnc) - - nova-utils: /usr/bin/u2x11 and /usr/bin/websockify, /usr/lib/* + - novnc: /usr/share/novnc/* + - python-novnc: /usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/* + - nova-novncproxy: /usr/bin/nova-novncproxy and /etc/init.d/nova-novncproxy (instead of /etc/init.d/novnc) + - nova-utils: /usr/bin/u2x11 and /usr/bin/websockify, /usr/lib/* - - Same bugs at debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675850 + Same bugs at debian: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi- + bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=675850
