[X2Go-Dev] /usr/sbin/x2gocleansessions does not properly quit

[Benjamin Shadwick]

Is there an advantage to allowing multiple copies of the daemon to run,
instead of having it do one of the following:

- Either kill previous instance(s) of the daemon and replace it with a new
running instance, or
- Abort the start of the new instance when a previous running instance is
detected?
