Description Tristan Miller 2024-02-12 20:18:54 UTC 
Trying to install the X2Go packages from the X11:RemoteDesktop:x2go project no longer works; Zypper/RPM now issues an error message along the lines of "nothing provides group(x2gouser)".

This is apparently because RPM >= 4.19 requires user and group dependencies to be declared using a special file.  This is detailed at <https://rpm-software-management.github.io/rpm/manual/users_and_groups.html>.

I'm assigning this to Jan for now as I don't know if/when I'll be able to look into this.
