Download the xpra source code

Use one of the following locations:

• github: https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra and https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra-html5
• pypi: https://pypi.org/project/xpra/ (releases only)
• xpra.org: https://xpra.org/src/ (releases only)

Build

git clone https://github.com/Xpra-org/xpra
cd xpra
python3 ./setup.py install --prefix=/usr --single-version-externally-managed --root=/

Caveats

• Do not mix source installation with binary packages. Remove one completely before installing the other
• Current versions of xpra require python3, for python2 use the 3.x LTS branch - see versions
