-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Dec 07 14:24:49 UTC 2020 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 20.12.0.12
+ Client drive mapping (CDM) enhancement
- Previously, your setting for file access through CDM was
applied on all configured stores.
- Starting with this release, Citrix Workspace app allows you
to configure per-store CDM file access.
Note:
The file access setting isnt’ persistent across sessions
when using workspace for web. It defaults to the Ask me
each time option.
- For more information, see Map client drives.
+ App protection experimental feature

This feature is supported only when Citrix Workspace app is
installed by using the tarball package. Also, x64 and armhf
are the only two supported packages.
This feature is supported only on on-premises deployments of
Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops.
- App protection is an add-on feature that provides enhanced
security when you use Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops. The
feature restricts the ability of clients to be compromised by
keylogging and screen capturing malware. App protection
prevents exfiltration of confidential information such as user
credentials and sensitive information displayed on the screen.
The feature prevents users and attackers from taking
screenshots and from using keyloggers to glean and exploit
sensitive information.
- For information about how to configure app protection on
Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops, see the App protection
section in the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
- For more information about app protection in Citrix Workspace
app, see App protection.
+ Authentication enhancement experimental feature
- We now present the authentication dialog inside Citrix
Workspace app and show store details on the logon screen for
a better user experience. We encrypt and store authentication
tokens so that you don’t need to reenter credentials when your
system or session restarts.
Note:
This authentication enhancement is available only in cloud
deployments.
This authentication enhancement is not available on armhf
platform.
- Prerequisite:
You must install the libsecret library.
This feature is disabled by default.
For more information, see Authenticate.
+ Audio configuration enhancement
- Starting with this release, the default value of the
VdcamVersion4Support attribute in the module.ini file is set
to True.
- For more information, see Audio.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Oct 30 22:27:13 UTC 2020 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 20.10.0.6
+ Enhanced audio redirection
- Previously, only the default audio device was mapped in a
session even when many devices were available on the machine.
The mapped device commonly appeared as Citrix HDX Audio.
- With this release, Citrix Workspace app for Linux displays
all local audio devices that are available in a session.
Instead of Citrix HDX Audio, they now appear with their
respective device names. You can switch to any of the
available devices dynamically in a session. Unlike in earlier
releases, now you don’t need to select the default audio
device before launching the session. Sessions update
dynamically when you plug in or remove audio devices.
For more information, see Audio.
- Additionally, this release addresses issues to improve the
Multi-Stream ICA feature.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Sep 17 22:05:29 UTC 2020 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 20.09.0.15
+ Enhancement to logging
- In earlier releases, the debug.ini and module.ini files were
used to configure logging.
As of Version 2009, you can configure logging using one of
the following methods:
+ Command-line interface
+ Graphical user interface
Also as of Version 2009, the debug.ini configuration file is
removed from the Citrix Workspace app installer package.
Logging captures the Citrix Workspace app deployment details,
configuration changes, and administrative activities to a
logging database. A third-party developer can apply this
logging mechanism by using the logging SDK, which is bundled
as part of the Citrix Workspace app Platform Optimization
SDK.
You can use the log information to:
+ Diagnose and troubleshoot issues that occur after any
changes. The log provides a breadcrumb trail.
+ Assist change management and track configurations.
+ Report administration activities.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 30 15:21:43 UTC 2020 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 20.06.0.15
+ Optimization for Microsoft Teams
- Optimization for desktop-based Microsoft Teams using Citrix
Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix Workspace app.
Optimization for Microsoft Teams is similar to HDX RealTime
Optimization for Microsoft Skype for Business. The difference
is that, we bundle all necessary components for Microsoft
Teams optimization into the VDA and the Workspace app for
Linux.
- Citrix Workspace app for Linux supports audio, video, and
screen sharing features with Microsoft Teams optimization.
- Note:
Microsoft Teams optimization is supported only on x64 Linux
distributions.
- For information on how to enable logging, follow the steps
mentioned under Logging for Microsoft Teams.
- For information on system requirements, see Microsoft Teams
Optimization.
- For more information, see Optimization for Microsoft Teams
and Microsoft Teams redirection.
+ Support for NetScaler App Experience (NSAP) virtual channel
- Previously available as an experimental feature, the
NetScaler App Experience (NSAP) virtual channel feature is
now fully supported. All HDX Insight data is sourced from the
NSAP virtual channel exclusively and sent uncompressed. This
approach improves scalability and performance of sessions.
The NSAP virtual channel is enabled by default. To disable
it, toggle the VDNSAP flag VDNSAP=Off in the module.ini file.
- For more information, see HDX Insight in the Linux Virtual
Delivery Agent documentation, and HDX Insight in the Citrix
Application Delivery Management service documentation.
+ Update to Citrix Analytics Service
- Citrix Workspace app is instrumented to transmit data to
Citrix Analytics Service from ICA sessions that you launch
from a browser.
- For more information on how Citrix Analytics uses this
information, see Self-Service for Performance and
Self-service search for Virtual Apps and Desktops.
+ TLS version update
- In earlier releases, the minimum TLS version supported was
1.0, and the maximum TLS version supported was 1.2. Starting
with this release, the minimum and maximum TLS version
supported is 1.2. To configure a different value for
MinimumTLS, see TLS.
+ CryptoKit update
- CryptoKit Version 14.2 is integrated with the OpenSSL 1.1.1d
version.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Apr 20 14:39:24 UTC 2020 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 20.04.0.21
+ Language support
- Citrix Workspace app for Linux is now available in the Italian
language.
+ Improved UI experience
- With this enhancement, cloud users will notice their apps
enumerating significantly faster.
+ Audio optimization for Microsoft Teams [experimental]
- As an experimental feature, Citrix Workspace app provides
audio optimization for Microsoft Teams running within a
Citrix Virtual Desktop session. By default, we bundle all
necessary components for optimization for Microsoft Teams
into the Virtual Delivery Agent (VDA) and the Workspace app
for Linux.
- For more information, see the Optimization for Microsoft
Teams and Microsoft Teams redirection sections in the Citrix
Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
+ Support for NetScaler App Experience (NSAP) virtual channel
[experimental]
- As an experimental feature, all HDX Insight data is sourced
from the NSAP virtual channel exclusively and sent
uncompressed. This approach improves scalability and
performance of sessions. The NSAP virtual channel is enabled
by default. To disable it, toggle the VDNSAP flag VDNSAP=Off
in the module.ini file.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Dec 15 11:58:13 UTC 2019 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 19.12.0.19
+ Transparent User Interface Enhancement
- Version 1910 introduced the transparent user interface (TUI)
feature, including the VDTUI flag. The feature helps the
client system to receive the TUI packets sent by the server,
and the client can access the UI related components. However,
with the flag set to Off, the “Starting <Application>” dialog
box overlay would render on top of other application windows,
covering the login prompt.
- Starting with this release, the VDTUI flag, located in the
module.ini file, is set to On by default. As a result, the
“Starting <Application>” dialog box no longer appears when
you attempt to launch a seamless app session. Instead, a
“Connecting <Application>” dialog box appears with a progress
bar. The dialog box also displays messages pertaining to the
progress of the application launch.
+ GStreamer 1.x Support [Experimental]
- In earlier releases, GStreamer 0.10 was the default version
supported for multimedia redirection. Starting with this
release, you can configure GStreamer 1.x as the default
version.
Limitations:
When you play a video, forward and backward seek might not
work as expected.
When you launch the Citrix Workspace app on ARMHF devices,
GStreamer 1.x might not work as expected.
For more information, see Enabling GStreamer 1.x.
+ Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) for Browser Content
Redirection (BCR) [Experimental]
- The BCR feature redirects contents of a web browser to a
client device, and creates a corresponding browser that
embeds within the Citrix Workspace app.
- In earlier releases, BCR used a WebkitGTK+ based overlay to
render the content. However, on thin clients, there were
performance issues. Starting with this release, BCR uses a
CEF based overlay. This functionality enriches the user
experience for BCR. It helps offload network usage, page
processing, and graphics rendering to the endpoint.
- For more information, see Enabling CEF based BCR.
- For information about BCR, see Browser content redirection in
the Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops documentation.
+ NOTES:
- The pacexec binary is removed from the x86 version of Citrix
Workspace app.
- Citrix Files might not work with the “Workspace with
Intelligence” feature.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Oct 08 12:07:47 UTC 2019 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 19.10.0.15
+ Language support
- Citrix Workspace app for Linux is now available in the
Brazilian Portuguese language.
+ Appindicator icon
- The appindicator is an icon that embeds in your system tray,
and starts when you launch Citrix Workspace app. With the
introduction of the appindicator, the Citrix Workspace app
for Linux logon performance is significantly improved.
You can observe performance improvement when you:
- launch Citrix Workspace app for the first time
- close and relaunch the app
- quit and relaunch the app
+ Transparent User Interface
- The Citrix ICA protocol uses the Transparent User Interface
[TUI] Virtual Channel [VC] protocol to transmits data between
Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop clients and host servers.
The TUI protocol transmits user interface [UI] component
messages for remote connections.
In earlier releases, Citrix Workspace app for Linux did not
support the TUI VC feature. As a result, the client system
could not handle UI component data from the server properly.
Due to this drawback, when you were attempting to launch a
seamless app session, the “Starting <Application>” dialog box
overlay would render on top of other application windows,
covering the login prompt. Resizing and moving the overlay
screen was difficult.
Starting with this release, Citrix Workspace app for Linux
supports the TUI VC feature. This enhancement helps the
client system to receive the TUI packets sent by the server,
and the client can access the UI related components.
This functionality helps you to control the display of the
default overlay screen. You can toggle the VDTUI flag in the
module.ini file: VDTUI - On/Off
For more information on Virtual Channels, see Citrix ICA
virtual channels in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops
documentation.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Aug 27 17:43:19 UTC 2019 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Feb 07 11:22:23 UTC 2019 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 19.1.0.9
+ Support for Citrix Analytics
- Citrix Workspace app for Linux is instrumented to securely
transmit logs to Citrix Analytics when certain events are
triggered by the app. The logs are analyzed and stored on
Citrix Analytics servers when enabled. For more information
about Citrix Analytics, see Citrix Analytics.
+ Workspace launcher with Citrix Gateway
- Citrix introduced Workspace launcher (WebHelper) in version
1809. In version 1901, Citrix Workspace launcher works not
only with direct connections to StoreFront, but also through
Citrix Gateway. This feature helps to launch the ICA file
automatically and to detect the Citrix Workspace app
installation.
+ Retail logging enhancements
- Retail logging enhancements is an extension of the Logging
enhancements and Better logging features. The feature
introduces support for retail logging for many modules and
simplifies the process of collecting logs. It helps users
troubleshoot, and - in cases of complicated issues -
facilitates support by providing detailed logs.
- For information about enabling retail logging, see Enabling
retail logging.
+ Keyboard layout synchronization between client and VDA
- Previously, the keyboard layouts on the Windows or Linux VDA
and on the client device were synchronized manually. For
example, when the keyboard layout changed from English to
French on the client device but not on the VDA, key mapping
issues could occur and persist until the keyboard layout on
the VDA was changed to French too.
- Starting with this release, Citrix is addressing the issue by
automatically synchronizing the keyboard layout of the VDA
with that of the client device. Anytime the keyboard layout
on the client device changes, the layout on the VDA follows
automatically.
- Note:
This feature requires version 7.16 or later of the VDA.
For more information, see Keyboard layout synchronization
between client and VDA.

+ Connecting this version of Citrix Workspace app for Linux to
Citrix Workspace services is an experimental feature.
+ Introducing Workspace launcher
- Previously, the browser plug-in provided along with Citrix
Workspace app for Linux enabled users to launch published
desktops and applications. This plug-in was based on the
Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface (NPAPI).
- Mozilla Corporation has announced that NPAPI support is
deprecated as of version 52 of the Firefox browser. Other
browsers, too, have deprecated support for NPAPI.
- As a solution, Citrix is introducing Workspace launcher
(WebHelper). To enable this feature, configure StoreFront
to send requests to Workspace launcher in order to detect
the Citrix Workspace app installation.
- For information about configuring StoreFront, see Solution -
2 > a) Administrator configuration in Knowledge Center article
[CTX237727](https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX237727).
- Note: Citrix Workspace launcher currently works only with
direct connections to StoreFront. It is not supported in other
cases such as connections through Citrix Gateway.
- Version 18.8.0.31
+ Citrix Receiver is now Citrix Workspace app.
- Citrix Workspace app extends the user experience you have
enjoyed with Citrix Receiver, making it easier for you to
stay productive. Citrix Workspace app incorporates the full
capabilities of Citrix Receiver and lays the groundwork for
new capabilities for future XenApp and XenDesktop releases as
well as the comprehensive Citrix Workspace.
- Citrix Workspace app has simplified versioning based on the
YYMM format, which makes this release of Citrix Workspace app
1808. The previous release had file version number 13.10.0.20.
- Existing users or endpoints of Citrix Receiver for Linux can
seamlessly transition to this new version of Citrix Workspace
app for Linux by doing an in-place upgrade.
- To upgrade, download the Citrix Workspace app from the Citrix
download page and install the app to upgrade from Citrix

- Logging enhancements feature is an extension of Better
logging I. Retail logging support is being introduced for the
Connection Center, Graphics (thinwire), and End User
Experience Monitoring (EUEM) modules. This enhancement helps
users troubleshoot, and - in cases of complicated issues -
facilitate the support team's job by using detailed logs.
For information about enabling retail logging, see Enabling
retail logging. (hyperlink to be added).
+ Cryptographic update
- This feature is an important change to the secure
communication protocol. Cipher suites with the prefix
TLS_RSA_ do not offer forward secrecy. These cipher suites
are now generally deprecated by the industry. However, to
support backward compatibility with older versions of XenApp
and XenDesktop, Receiver for Linux has an option to enable
these cipher suites. For more information, see Configuring
deprecated cipher suites.(hyperlink to be added).
+ Multi-monitor layout persistence
- This feature lets you save the position of a desktop session,
and then relaunch it in the same position. This feature
avoids the overhead of repositioning sessions at every
launch. It empowers you to dynamically adjust and save the
layout information across endpoints, thus optimizing the end
user experience in multi-monitor environments. For more
information, see Configuring multi-monitor layout
persistence.
+ SoC SDK update
- Those who use SoC SDK might be required to update the plugins
for H.264-based session graphics.
+ This dot release includes the gstreamer1 files.

Wed Mar 28 20:19:50 UTC 2018 - enzokiel@kabelmail.de
- Update to version 13.9.1.6
+ Browser content redirection
- Redirects the contents of a web browser to a client device
and creates a corresponding browser embedded within Citrix
Receiver. This feature offloads network usage, page
processing, and graphics rendering to the endpoint. Doing so
improves the user experience when browsing demanding
webpages, especially webpages that incorporate HTML5 or Flash
video. Browser content redirection is supported only on the
x86 and x64 platforms.
- For more information, see Browse content redirection and
Browser content redirection policy settings in XenApp and
XenDesktop documentation.
+ Better logging
- The retail build of standard Citrix Receiver for Linux can
now generate and send logs through syslog. This feature
allows the handling of messages to be controlled based on
their level and origin. Retail logging support is being
introduced for the Connection Sequence (WD, PD, TD, Proxy)
and Printing components. This helps users troubleshoot,
and - in cases of complicated issues - facilitate the support
team's job by using the detailed logs available. The log
output is similar to the current debugging mode.
- The logging parameters, log level, log file, log method
(sequence, multi-sequential, cycle), and the module to be
logged can be configured using configuration files. For
information about enabling retail logging, see Enabling
retail logging.
+ Support for Citrix Ready workspace hub
- Citrix Ready workspace hub provides a secure connection to
authorized apps and data. With this release, Citrix Receiver
for Linux enhances the implementation for workspace hub
plug-in, which enables support for the Citrix HDX RealTime
Optimization Pack and dual monitors connected to a workspace
hub.

+ Customer Experience Improvement Program (CEIP) integration:
- Citrix Receiver for Linux integrates the Customer Experience
Improvement Program to help improve the quality and
performance of Citrix products by collecting anonymous
statistics and usage information. By default, CEIP is
enabled, and you can always opt-out.
- For more information, see About the Citrix Customer
Experience Improvement Program (CEIP).
+ Using Datagram Transport Layer Security (DTLS) to support
Enlightened Data Transport (EDT) connections:
- This allows secure external access to resources hosted in
XenApp and XenDesktop environments using the EDT protocol.
- For more information, see Configuring NetScaler Gateway to
Support Enlightened Data Transport.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Jul 12 13:36:19 UTC 2017 - joerg.lorenzen@ki.tng.de
- Update to version 13.6.0.10243651
+ Adaptive transport:
- Adaptive transport for XenApp and XenDesktop optimizes data
transport by leveraging a new Citrix protocol called EDT
(Enlightened Data Transport) in preference to TCP whenever
possible. Compared to TCP and UDP, EDT delivers a superior
user experience on challenging long-haul WAN and Internet
connections, while maintaining high server scalability and
efficient use of bandwidth. EDT is built on top of UDP and
improves data throughput for all ICA virtual channels
including Thinwire display remoting, file transfer (Client
Drive Mapping), printing, multimedia redirection and others.
When UDP is not available, adaptive transport automatically
reverts to TCP.
- You must enable the HDX adaptive transport policy setting in
Citrix Studio. You can disable it from Receiver settings.
- Currently this feature is supported only for direct
connections without going through NetScaler Gateway.
+ Joint Server Certificate Validation Policy - Citrix Receiver
for Linux 13.6 and later introduces a new, stricter, validation
policy for server certificates to ensure a continuous
improvement of client security. For more information, see
Knowledge Center articles CTX224709 and CTX221453.

Wed Aug 31 10:36:11 UTC 2016 - joerg.lorenzen@ki.tng.de
- Update to version 13.4.0.10109380
+ Desktop Viewer Toolbar.
+ Support for Relative Mouse and Absolute Mouse modes.
+ Credential insertion SDK (CISDK) for proximity card and thin
client OEM integration.
+ SecMaker CID supported.
+ Selective H264 supported.
- Those who use SoC SDK may be required to update the H264
optimization.
+ Improvements to the authentication dialogs.
- Receiver for Linux now allows the title of its authentication
dialogs to be changed by a HTTP response header with the name
X-Citrix-AM-Title. A user can more easily tell what their
logging onto.
+ Enhanced FTU experience particularly when using SMS
authentication.
- For more information, see
http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX205892.
+ Enhanced default smart card support
- When connecting to a StoreFront server that allows smart card
authentication, if no value has been set for “PKCS11module”
in the $ICAROOT/config/AuthManConfig.xml configuration file,
Receiver now uses the opensc-pkcs11.so driver if it finds it
in one of the standard locations. This means that it may
prompt for you to insert a reader or card without any change
to AuthManConfig.xml. If you do not wish to use a smart card,
select the “Log on with another method” link.
+ As part of the continuing work to improve security, Receiver
for Linux now uses version 1.0.1t of OpenSSL for TLS
connections.
