Project accetto/xubuntu-vnc-novnc

Docker Hub - Git Hub - Wiki - Hierarchy

Release 23.01.1

  • following this release:
    • only the latest tags will be published on the Docker Hub
    • images with the updated Ubuntu, Chrome, Chromium and Firefox versions will be published on the Docker Hub without creating parallel new releases on the Git Hub
  • fixes in the README files
  • explicit support for the BuildKit added, even if it's not strictly required

Updated versions:

  • Firefox 108.0.1

Release 23.01

  • builder.sh returns an exit code now
  • noVNC and websockify versions updated
  • Chrome, Chromium and Firefox versions updated

Updated versions:

  • noVNC 1.3.0
  • websockify 0.11.0
  • Chrome 108.0.5359.124
  • Chromium 108.0.5359.71
  • Firefox 108.0

Release 22.11

The repository has been revived, because I've noticed, that the images are still being pulled.

This is the first release of the second version (G2v2) of the project, which brings improvements mostly in the building pipeline and helper utilities.

The first version (G2v1, or simply G2) will still be available in this GitHub repository as the archived branch archived-generation-g2v1.

The most significant changes in this release are:

  • The values of the version sticker variables (VERSION_STICKER_*) in the env hook scripts are not hardcoded, but initialized from the related environment variables.
  • The helper utility util-refresh-readme.sh does not update the original README.md files, but their clones named scrap_readme.md. The content of this temporary file is intended to be copy-and-pasted to the Docker Hub.

Current versions:

  • Ubuntu 18.04.6
  • Chrome 107.0.5304.121
  • Chromium 107.0.5304.87
  • Firefox 107.0

Final G2v1 release 22.03.1

The repository is retired and archived. It will not be developed any further and the related images on Docker Hub will not be rebuilt any more. They will phase out and they will be deleted after becoming too old.

Please use the newer third generation (G3) repository accetto/ubuntu-vnc-xfce-g3 and the related images on Docker Hub instead.

If you still need images based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, then feel free using the repository for building the images locally.
