No, that's for sure a bug. No application may crash because of missign
env variables. Never!

The issue is coma : "." in English and "," in French. So the MySQL requests fail and crash the software. But that is not the issue we should focus on in this mailing list.

The issue is that the environment variables are not set correctly : in a local session it starts in French (as it should), but in the x2go session in starts in English.

So this happens only when starting an LXDE session?

Yes, this is related to LXDE. But once more, only in combination with x2go : on the local station I do not have this error when I start a LXDE session.

Because LXDE is so light, it is very well adapted for remote desktop ; so it is definitely a first choice for a combination with x2go.

Really during typing, before pressing enter? That's very weird.

Sorry I should have said "after typing" : when I press enter, libreoffice starts loading, and suddenly I am ejected from the x2go session.
