It's determined in a {pre,post}{inst,rm} scripts... which are buggy in that regard.
We should ignore non-existing files instead of assuming a different SQL backend
being used.
Please create /etc/x2go/x2gosql/sql manually with a line containing
'backend=sqlite'. That should allow you to purge the packages.
Afterwards you should be able to reinstall them normally.
