The X2GOBROKER_DEBUG is in /etc/default/python-x2gobroker. This is not  
very intuitive, I know. The thing is that there are several values for  
x2gobroker-daemon and x2gobroker-authservice (and also later for  
x2gobroker-wsgi). I will think about a more intuitive way.

Thanks for spotting. Committed:

Unfortunately, this is not possible with the standalone daemon of the  
webpy framework. With the next version (or the one after that) I will  
provide a WSGI integration package that makes it possible to hook the  
x2gobroker (/usr/sbin/x2gobroker) behind an Apache2 server. Then you  
have privileged ports and everything.

Greets,
Mike
