Not quite sure what you do here or what the bug is.

You're trying to create the DB as a user - which won't work.

sudo x2godbadmin --createdb

should work, instead, and judging from the DB's size (13 KB), it looks like it
was created successfully by the RPM scriptlets.

So what's the *real* problem?
