After updating x2goserver and x2goserver-xsession on CentOS 7, the x2go client can no longer maintain a x2go session with the x2go server; that is, client connects, a black screen with the X2GO logo is displayed, and the session is terminated. A full system update was done which also included updates for installed x2go packages. If the previous x2goserver and x2goserver-xsession packages are re-installed, everything works as expected. The client and server software details are listed below.

After upgrading from x2goserver-4.0.1.15-2.el7.x86_64 and x2goserver-xsession-4.0.1.15-2.el7.x86_64 to x2goserver-4.0.1.18-3.el7.x86_64 and x2goserver-xsession-4.0.1.18-3.el7.x86_64.
