These, apart from the X2Go repositories, seem to be the default values in my fresh VM (i.e., backport enabled).
So that's not it either.
Btw, to clear up some confusion here:
The following packages have unmet dependencies: x2goserver : Depends: x2goserver-x2goagent (>= 4.1.0.0-0~1517~ubuntu16.04.1) but it is not going to be installed Depends: x2goserver-x2goagent (< 4.1.0.0-0~1517~ubuntu16.04.1.1~) but it is not going to be installed E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
I do not undersatnd how it can depend upon a version both less than andgreater than the current version available.
It's depending on a version greater or equal to 4.1.0.0-0~1517~ubuntu16.04.1 and less than 4.1.0.0-0~1517~ubuntu16.04.1.1~ (the tilde in Debian packaging always sorts before everything else, so any additional strings will make the version higher.)
Anyway, the point here is the *additional* .1 at the end.
That's to make sure that version bumps, like 4.1.0.0-0~1517~ubuntu16.04.2 also satisfy the dependency.
We're not really actively using that, but it's a pretty common versioning scheme.
Not explaining your error, though.
dpkg -l | grep -i x2go
from that machine please.
