Oh, indeed, you should have purged both x2goserver and x2goserver-common...
maybe also the old db packages.

It looks like in your original message, apt-get only tried to purge these packages:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  x2goserver* x2goserver-extensions* x2goserver-fmbindings* x2goserver-printing*
x2goserver-xsession*

So definitely not everything, for instance x2goserver-common is missing there.
