[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.0.5.2

When using 
  x2goclient --pgp-card
and not using a Smartcard, after typing a password there will be a popup
window asking for a passphrase even though no usable keys are available.

(The problem arose at a Thinclient of a customer who in some cases does not
use their smartcards.)

After some digging into the problem I think that the autologin flag should
be cleared after SshMasterConnection::userAuthAuto has been tried once.
Alternatively SshMasterConnection::userAuthAuto could check if there are
usable keys before asking for a passphrase. Or it could check if a
password has already been given.
