Changes:
  x2goserver (4.0.1.7) RELEASED; urgency=low
  .
    [ Orion Poplawski ]
    * New upstream version (4.0.1.7):
      - Install Xsession file as executable, make Xsession.d directory location
        configurable during build process, do not create unused  
Xsession.options.
        (Fixes: #278).
  .
    [ Mike Gabriel ]
    * New upstream version (4.0.1.7):
      - Fine-tune x2goserver-xsession/Makefile: if /etc/X11 has  
Xsession.d and/or
        Xsession.options they get symlinked into /etc/x2go. Otherwise  
Xsession.d
        and Xsession.options are created under /etc/x2go as empty dir/file.
        (Fixes: #278).
      - Fix automatic keyboard setup (via x2gosetkeyboard) while resuming a
        session. (Fixes: #285).
      - Provide sudoers.d/x2goserver file that allows sudoed commands under
        KDE (by pertaining the env var QT_GRAPHICSSYSTEM. (Fixes: #276).
      - With PostgreSQL as session db backend, prevent the root user from
        launching sessions. Also, prevent x2gouser_root from being added as a
        PostgreSQL user. (Fixes: #310).
      - Execute DB status changes as late as possible during suspend /  
terminate.
      - Start/resume rootless sessions without geometry parameter. Esp. using
        X2GO_GEOMETRY=fullscreen for rootless sessions lead to an extra 1x1 px
        session window (nxagentCreateIconWindow in nxagent's Window.c).
      - Typo fix in x2goruncommand (for MATE session startup).
    * debian/control:
      + Update LONG_DESCRIPTIONS.
      + Raise Standards: to 3.9.4 (no changes needed).
      + Move xfonts-base to Recommends: field of bin:package x2goserver.
    * debian/x2goserver.init:
      + Make init script LSB compliant.
  .
    [ Helmer Teles ]
    * New upstream version (4.0.1.7):
      - Make umask that is used when mounting client-side folders via SSHFS
        configurable in x2goserver.conf. (Fixes: #331).
  .
    [ Jürgen Hötzel ]
    * New upstream version (4.0.1.7):
      - Use bash-builtin 'type' instead of to be avoided 'which'.  
(Fixes: #305).
  .
    [ Oleksandr Shneyder ]
    * New upstream version (4.0.0.6):
      - Fix x2goruncommand: "type -P $cmd" can create new lines in EXEC
        variable if command have the arguments wich have same names as existing
        commands, for example "rdesktop -k nl" ->  
"/usr/bin/rdesktop\n/usr/bin/nl".
        Now we splitting $cmd and taking only first part.
