Well, that's why I wrote 'partly'. I simply don't know what keys libssh can understand. Does it work if you leave out the host line and make these options general ones?
Make sure you have the newest available x2goclient, maybe try to recompile with a newer libssh.

Not directly, but libssh (partly) read your ssh config. So you can add a host stanza with the settings for your destination host there.
Are you quite sure? With the following in my ssh config file
Host example.com PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa HostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa
I can run ssh on the command line successfully but trying to start an x2go session results in
kex error : no match for method server host key algo: server [ssh-rsa,ssh-dss], client [rsa-sha2-512,rsa-sh
a2-256,ssh-ed25519,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp256, sk-ssh-ed25519@openssh.com,s k-ecdsa-sha2-nistp256@openssh.com]
Does x2go actually use the system ssh executable (e.g. /usr/bin/ssh)? The reason I'm asking is because I did an experiment and renamed ssh to xxx. I got the same result, shown above, when running the x2goclient! This was a surprise.
Thanks, Jon

Due to reasons too sad to describe, I need to X2go from a modern Fedora 40 system to a Ubuntu 10.04 (!) system.
Running ssh from the command line fails with the message
Unable to negotiate with XX.XX.XX.XX port 22: no matching host key type found. Their offer: ssh-rsa,ssh-dss
After some work I got this to work by adding
-oHostKeyAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa -oPubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms=+ssh-rsa
to the ssh command line.
My question is how can I add these options to the ssh command that X2go executes on the client?
