Ah, ok. The TigerVNC maintainers in Debian have found a way to handle that:

https://salsa.debian.org/debian-remote-team/tigervnc/tree/master/debian

Especially for TigerVNC, the xorg-server-source package [1] got  
introduced (available since jessie).

We need to make sure that x2godrive builds against all those versions.  
The TigerVNC people have various patches against the different  
xorg-server(-source) versions to make that happen.

Greets,
Mike
