use a config file e.g. under /etc/x2go/x2go-tce/config and source its contents
* instead of copy-pasting the build commands, turn most of it into a script as /usr/bin/x2go-tcebuilder or something (the remaining config parts in the copy-paste block would have to be moved into the config file)
* our config would be used as suggestion by linking to it; a user could create their own by replacing the link with a regular file (similar to how /etc/x2go/applications works)
* our additional live-scripts would be shipped similar to how apache does it with sites-available and sites-active
* store the results somewhere under /var/x2go-tce/ or whatever the proper place according to FHS and Debian would be
* turning it into a package would mean we could add dependencies as well, so the manual apt-get install would not be neccessary

===== History, Rationale, Outlook =====
During the time of Debian Wheezy being Debian's stable release, we started developing a new ThinClientEdition (TCE) - one that is based on Debian-Live and thus does no longer rely on NFS. Instead, the entire image is loaded into the RAM of the ThinClient machine.
