[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Package: x2goserver
Tag: patch
Version: bfe3ba761c1d3e9143285ca17edc87ac763ce35d

Hi,

i have been using x2go for years, also on servers where i needed to
set environment variables for proxies etc. A regular x2go-session fails
to include stuff that is configured in /etc/env.d/ and /etc/profile.d/.
I think those directories are actually distro specific, the solution is
to start everything in a login shell.

For me the attached patch helps setting environment variables on several
debian systems, i did not test on other distros.
