Using Atom Editor over X2Go on Gentoo Linux

Some applications like Atom resp. it's runtime environment Electron do not work out of the box over X2Go remote desktop because it expects at least GLX 1.3 or higher.

I found a workaround in a bug report which needs to be modified for Gentoo because Electron comes in a separate package:

# cd /usr/lib/electron
# cp /usr/lib/libxcb.so.1.1.0 .
# sed -i 's/BIG-REQUESTS/_IG-REQUESTS/' libxcb.so.1.1.0
# ln -s libxcb.so.1.1.0 libxcb.so.1
# ln -s libxcb.so.1.1.0 libxcb.so

So far I did not recognize any downsides on this.
