Public bug reported: qemu-kvm and, by extension, virt-manager, supports two graphic modes: vnc and the newer spice.
virt-manager always assumes the presence of a python spice module, and lets the user select it without checking if system support is indeed present. This results in an error when trying to control guests: no module named spiceClientGtk installing the package python-spice-client-gtk does solve the problem; my suggestion is to either make it a dependency or patch virt-manager to only use and display available protocols. ** Affects: virt-manager (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1263499 Title: missing dependency: python-spice-client-gtk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-manager/+bug/1263499/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
