Hi Morty,

@ML: this mail was (probably by accident) only sent to me privately, I  
re-include the list in my answer and fully quote Moritz's text passages

OK, good point!!! But then let's move the whole TCE configuration to  
/etc/x2go. Any file that is supposed to be modifyable by the  
admin/user should rest in /etc/x2go, shouldn't it? Ok?

Ah... OK. This answers my former question. I would provide a default  
configuration in /etc/x2go and provide other possible configurations  
in /usr/share/doc/x2gothinclientmanagement/examples

That is by using e.g. etckeeper?!?

This will probably conflict with Debian's FHS (Reinhard? Comments?)  
which would lead to conflicts or transition problems once the packages  
move into Debian...
