Package: x2goclient
Version: 4.0.3.2
Tags: patch

kde based apps on my machines have Exec lines in their desktop files 
along the line of

Exec=okular %U %i -caption %c

when launched via the hosted applications mode applications menu of 
x2goclient the "%i -caption %c" get passed as arguments to the command 
directly.     That results in the program trying to load the file '%i' 
(and naturally failing) and setting the window caption to '%c'

The attached patch updates the x2go client to removes the %i param and 
replaces %c with the application name so the program is titled correctly.

Thanks
Jason
