Now i see...
I read this as "Please install this program as SUID: x2gouser!", but it is
to be read as "Please make sure that the file of *this* executable
(x2goclient) has the SUID-bit set and the user set to 'x2gouser'!"

Is it of any value to rephrase that error-message in the "main" version?
...Or will Heuler replace "main" very soonish anyway?

I did "aptitude purge (...x2go-related-packages...)" and after changing
"main" to "heuler" installed the packages again.

All went very well. Now i have a working X2go. Thanks a lot! :-D

All "x2go...."-groups were automatically deleted at purging. Convenient. :-)
