    x2goserver-xsession/etc/Xsession: Detect $SHELL from getent passwd and use it to launch the session (on RHEL, SUSE, Gentoo and alike). (Fixes: #1434).
    
     X2Go's Xsession file always starts the user's session with /bin/bash (at
     least on RedHat systems where SHELL is set to /bin/bash via ~/.bashrc
     calling /etc/bashrc).  This patch attempts to determine the user's login
     shell and use that for launching the session.  See also:
     .
     https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1794660
     .
     Another option might be the judicious use of the --norc option when
     launching x2goruncommand on followers but I'm not sure what other
     effects this will have or where to do that.  Effects might not be to bad
     because I can simulate this by moving away the user's .bash_profile and
     .bashrc files and then the tcsh is used as expected in this case.
     However, while $SHELL does not get set in this case, the xfce4-session
     script still gets launched with bash which triggers some other errors,
     so this patch may be the best option.
