Bug Description
Hi, first a big thanks you for your nice idea, I really like that!
It might be of interest to you that Ubuntu 18.04 has no gSTM any more - this was many years the only ssh tunnel manager gui. This is now gone, I do not know why - and this means that your shiny new and beautyful tunnel manager gui might get the number one tunnel manager gui on Ubuntu - if you just published a package for Bionic 18.04!
I would try to do it myself but that process is so extremely complicated for somebody not deeply involved into Ubuntu dev libraries that I am asking you, if you would like to do that?
Would be very appreciated - I really like to have a gui for ssh tunnels, especially when installing them on normal user machines - it helps them to have a much better understanding of what exactly happens.
Thank you very much for your effort!
yes, I said THE number 1 ssh tunnel manager gui! :)))
Have a nice day!
Thanks for the report, and I apologize for the long delay in acknowledging it. I so seldom get any kind of communication about the project that I forgot to check the e-mail box this mail goes to.
I'll see whether I can get it running on Bionic. It sounds like it might require a bit more major surgery than usual. I suspect the gSTM issue will have been similar, since AFAICT that project isn't really maintained any longer.
I usually only run the LTS releases and generally don't migrate until my office does, which can take several months, so it might take some time before I get a development environment set up. I'll see whether I can dig in before the end of the month.
