And why is it a problem for X2Go? Is libssh not working any more? Then it should be fixed in libssh, not in x2go?

As of Version: 1:6.7p1-1 of openssh-server, it appears that Debian [and presumably upstream]'s sshd now has diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 disabled. This means that connections from x2goclient will fail.
I was able to work around this by adding:
KexAlgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org,ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256,diffie-hellman-group14-sha1,diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1,diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
to /etc/ssh/sshd_config, but obviously at some point support for diffie-hellman-group1-sha1 is going to go away completely, rather than just being disabled by default.
Thanks for bringing this up. Did not realize so far.
@Alex Schneyder: do you think you can find a fix for this. This actually is a release blocker of 4.0.3.0... And it endangers the status of X2Go Client in Debian, as well.

Looking through the libssh git logs, it appears that libssh 0.6 was the first version to add support for a non-sha1 key exchange method, ecdh_sha2_nistp256 [1].
0.6 also added support for curve25519-sha256@libssh.org [1].
In a few hours or so, I will test if using a libssh 0.6.x linked version of x2goclient fixes this bug.
Jessie does include libssh 0.6.3 (Thanks to our DD, Mike#1)[2].
-Mike#2
The issue is a non-issue on distributions with libssh 0.6.x provided.
See yesterday's post of mine to x2go-user [1].
