  Congratulations, you are now able to access the X2Go packages. You may continue by installing x2goserver, x2goclient or pyhoca-gui or any other of the available packages.
  
  If you wish to install newer or test versions directly from the X2Go project, follow the instructions below in addition to configuring the EPEL repository.
+ 
+ <note important>Do not mix-and-match packages
from the official EPEL repository with packages from the X2Go EPEL repository. Due to differing version number schemes, you will indefinitely run into problems. If you **really** need to switch between repositories, make sure to uninstall all X2Go packages first.</note>

  ===== Adding the X2Go Repository to your Package System =====
  
  Add the file ''x2go.repo'' to the folder ''/etc/yum.repos.d/''.
  This can be done using by your preferred editor.

+ A sample content for this file
can be found here, with the original information on [[http://packages.x2go.org/epel/x2go.repo]]. Be sure to **edit** this example to match your needs, mostly the ''enabled'' key. ''source''-tagged repositories are only needed if you intend to build packages from source, while ''extras''-labeled repositories are always needed. By default, the ''release''-labeled binaries repository is enabled, while the ''nightly''-labeled binaries repository is disabled. If you want to try newer, unreleased software, disable the ''release''-labeled binaries repository and enable the ''nightly''-labeled binaries repository.
