Getting xpra to work on OS X

Here’s a shout-out to Nathaniel Smith’s xpra. I’ve managed to get it working with a remote Debian server and my Mac laptop as a client. I have at least the following packages installed in support of xpra (all installed using MacPorts):

  • python25
  • python26
  • py26-pyrex
  • py26-gtk
  • xorg-libXtst
  • py25-gobject
  • py25-gtk
  • py25-nose
  • py26-nose
  • xorg-libXdamage
  • xorg-libXcomposite
  • xorg-libXtst
  • xorg-libXfixes

No guarantee that all of these are really necessary. I suspect that all the py26-* packages are necessary because it seemed that I needed py25-gtk even after installing py26-gtk.  On the other hand, there is no py25-pyrex.
