Congrats. As a side note regarding upcoming Debian 9...
It is very likely, that we will get nx-libs 3.6.x (or 3.5.99.y) into
Debian for Debian 9. I am open to packaging X2Go Server for Debian,
too, but this requires the adaptations for nx-libs 3.6.x as found in
the current master branch (targetting X2Go Server 4.1.0.0).
Alternatively, X2Go devs may consider to backport those commits [1] to
the release/4.0.1.x branch...
Let me know, if any of the above can be done at X2Go upstream as a
pre-requisite for getting X2Go Server into Debian. And also, let me
know, if X2Go upstream "risks" to depend on nx-libs 3.6.x.
Another thing that comes to my mind: nx-libs 3.6.x has completely
change the Xinerama part in nxagent / x2goagent. Thus, a new handling
of Xinerama configuration from X2Go Client's side needs to be
implemented, too [2]. That would probably fix other Xinerama related
issues [3].
