Folks
I am trying to get the "x2go" package onto a RPI-3 server, so that I can have some form of remote GUI interface. Although "x2go" installs with no diagnostics, I can't find a GUI package that installs. I believe that x2go requires some form of gui desktop package on the server.
I have tried MATE, GNOME, KDE Plasma Workspaces, and XFCE4, and all have unsatisfied dependencies. I am including in my YUM repo search:

Notice that only repos with "Enabled=1" are included.
An attempt to install "@KDE Plasma Workspaces" ends up with:
Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: gnome-shell Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: gnome-keyring-pam Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: gnome-settings-daemon >= 2.21.92 Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: pulseaudio-gdm-hooks Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: libcanberra-gtk3.so.0 Error: Package: 1:gdm-3.22.3-12.el7.armv7hl (updates) Requires: gnome-session You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
Is there a GUI interface that could work with remote access? Is x2go the right one to try?
Thanks for any advice

have you tried freerdp + xrdp ?
all of them are on the repos.
Itimar: Thanks for the pointer. After some research, it appears that RDP needs to have a working GNOME desktop, and therein lies the problem. GNOME doesn't install on the Raspberry Pi.

theres no need on gnome, you can use xfce, lxde, etc...

If you only need to access to sysadmin stuff you could try cockpit: htt p://cockpit-project.org/

For cockpit, I'll have a look at include those in CentOS Extras for armhfp (so far we weren't tracking the x86_64 repo but we'll try from now on)

WRT X window, someone will have to spend time debugging what's missing from the [base] repo and mentioning things outside like xfce/lxde (or whatever like fluxbox, etc) comes with other questions : we have an "unofficial" rebuild so it can be (or not) that we have those already built and available ..
I admit not having a lot of free time those days to look at this, but if nobody has a look , I'll try later to see what's missing and why. In the meantime, if someone does it, that would be very welcome :-)
