All X2Go components are available for Debian wheezy (except  
x2gognomebindings which is for GNOME2 only).

However, due to recent changes in libcairo, not all GTK based  
applications are fully functional in X2Go sessions. Same applies for  
applications / desktop shells that require a recent GLX v8. NX agent  
ships with GLX v6. Affected by this are the desktop shells Unity in  
Ubuntu 12.10 and greater and the Cinnamon desktop shell.

This only means that the chroot of the thinclients has to be in  
squeeze still. This afternoon I will do some more work on the TCE  
(contracted project).

So currently, for a TCE environment you install a wheezy based PXE  
server and on that you install x2gothinclientmanagement from wheezy.  
The x2gothinclientmanagement provides the command  
x2gothinclient_create. This command will generate a squeeze based TCE  
chroot.

If you want some newer Xorg in your TCE chroot feel free to supplement  
the installed packages with newer versions from squeeze-backports.

Hope that helps,
Mike
