Description Tim Jackson 2021-04-13 15:59:53 UTC
There have been several new upstream releases of "synergy" since the last Fedora build; most recently 1.13.1.41 ( https://github.com/symless/synergy-core/releases/tag/1.13.1.41-stable )

Comment 1 Fedora Update System 2021-04-13 18:11:55 UTC
FEDORA-2021-1d86c5a47e has been submitted as an update to Fedora 34. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-1d86c5a47e

Comment 2 David Kaufmann 2021-04-13 18:16:22 UTC
thanks, should be in the repos soon.

Comment 3 Fedora Update System 2021-04-13 20:48:06 UTC

Comment 4 Tim Jackson 2021-04-21 08:14:17 UTC
Thanks. Would you consider an update also on the Fedora 33 branch?

Comment 5 David Kaufmann 2021-04-21 16:46:04 UTC
maybe - but I'm not sure if this is just a feature update, which is discouraged on stable releases. are there reasons to push it to f33 anyway (e.g. major bugfixes)?

Comment 6 Allan 2021-04-23 23:44:50 UTC
Just updated to this 1.13 version. After reboot Synergy pop'ed up a window asking for a serial key.
I've seen that before, but it could just be closed again. Now, if closing it - server isn't started,
and pressing the start button immidiately pops the same registration window up again.
In other words - pay the ransom to symless, or the app doesn't work. Not sure if this is some new
standard in Fedoras repos ??
Anyway, downgrading to 1.12 makes it work again.

Comment 7 David Kaufmann 2021-04-24 12:45:31 UTC
yes, I didn't catch that - I did see the nagging screen, but only when starting the app.
The command line version (synergys) still works - because of this I didn't see it.

This change seems to have been intentional - I've found a closed bug[1] where this is stated.
There is a command line flag I can use, I've asked them if they are ok with it - I'll wait for a response for some time, but if I don't get a response I'll just add that as a bugfix.

Comment 8 Fedora Update System 2021-04-24 20:11:26 UTC
FEDORA-2021-1d86c5a47e has been pushed to the Fedora 34 stable repository.
If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report.

Comment 9 David Kaufmann 2021-04-25 13:25:04 UTC
Reopening the bug, because the issue is not solved completely, despite the new version being pushed out already.

Comment 10 David Kaufmann 2021-04-27 15:58:26 UTC
Upstream recommends to downgrade again to 1.12.2 - there will be a new community version, but not in the near future.

Is this an acceptable solution?

Comment 11 Allan 2021-04-27 19:01:35 UTC
Fine by me

Comment 12 Ben Cotton 2021-08-10 12:58:52 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 35 development cycle.
Changing version to 35.

Comment 13 Allan 2021-09-01 05:53:27 UTC
we need to get this issue fixed. Either downgrade it to a working version, or use that compile flag as others recommended. It is very annoying that this is still an issue on F34-F35-F36

Comment 14 David Kaufmann 2021-09-14 16:51:20 UTC
There is now an update to synergy which should fix this issue, please test.

Updates:
rawhide: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-5b7d0a496c
f35: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-59ae27a60d
f34: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2021-c912534263

Comment 15 Allan 2021-09-16 23:04:22 UTC
Finally. Tested F34 and rawhide as client - now works great again. Thank you. Karma left for F34.
