That's what I did and it simply didn't work for a Ubuntu based image.
Most configuration switches for live-build script are not supported under Ubuntu and well, I don't remember every bits of what were working or not because I tried monthes ago but it was to tricky and except for Debian, it was simply unusable as is. As for the git repos, I tried many combinations and nothing worked as expected so I basicaly decided to do this by hand and take inspiration from the howto on what to install/tweak.
I ended with something that was not that complicated to do, scriptable (mostly) and working (except for this dual head stuff) so I stopped going the Live Build way, at least, just the time to sort out things and get back with some contributions on that part.

Why didn't you report your issues with the current build process in a bug or on the list so we have a chance to improve our build process/documentation?
Well, for multiple reasons :
First : the kernel image process uses live build scripts that are obsolete on Ubuntu 16.04 so it crashes all the time because of invalid dependencies problems (those scripts needs packages from Debian that are not available on Ubuntu) ... so it was just headaches
You could probably set up a Debian changeroot using debootstrap (admittedly, I've never tried that, though), or a virtual machine with Debian as a dedicated build host.
Second : sorry to say that but the live build process documentation is pretty partial and based on situation where "it works" but outside that scope a lot of things "just don't work" and there are many forks for the setup scripts from many users so to be honest ... this is a bit messy and since there is nothing in the repo but everything in personnal github here and there, it was just to complicated
Are you talking about the live-build project's documentation, or the X2Go-TCE-Live documentation?
If all you want to do is build X2Go-TCE-Live images, you don't need to start by reading and trying to understand the live-build project's docs.
Read our Wiki page: <https://wiki.x2go.org/doku.php/doc:howto:tce#starting_the_build>, run the three chunks of code given in the sections titled "Configuring the Build", "Live-Patching the Build", "Starting the Build", and you end up with a stable, i386 build ready for netbooting via PXE, TFTP, HTTP.
Prefer one that boots from local/portable media? Change export LBX2GO_IMAGETYPE='netboot' to export LBX2GO_IMAGETYPE='iso-hybrid' in the first chunk of code, and you're done. Can't get much easier than that, can it?
