64-bit Ubuntu & Citrix XenApps

Hey!

This was a thing i was debating with a colleague for a long time. There is no official x64 client from Citrix for their XenApps dealio. But! There is a way to install it successfully!

I used Madox.net for a part of this, but the rest was googled by myself. I thought i'd compile the instructions here to avoid problems. So, follow the instructions of Madox.net. As for the certificate issue mentioned, you can search my blog for Thawte, or download any necessary certs and place them in your citrix installation folder /keystore/cacerts.

There are a few remaining problems, namely some 32-bit libs that can't be found when starting wfcmgr or wfica. To solve these, i found an awesome tool called getlibs. Getlibs gets 32 bit libs as they are needed. You can point it to the wfcmgr program (if you used the default, that's /usr/lib/ICAClient/wfcmgr), and it'll sniff out the needed libs, download, install and symlink as needed! It fucking worked! Thanks to cappy, if that's who made the tool. There are tons of other nifty options for that tool, you could look here for some of those.
