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)
