Public bug reported: Virt-viewer 0.5.4-1 for Raring doesn't support the SPICE protocol.
Trying to connect to a SPICE'd VM results in 'Unknown graphic type for the guest'. $ ldd /usr/bin/virt-viewer | grep spice $ After adding SPICE support and recompiling the package, I can successfully connect to a SPICE'd VM and: $ ldd ./virt-viewer | grep spice libspice-client-gtk-3.0.so.4 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libspice-client-gtk-3.0.so.4 (0x00007f2f5ffe6000) libspice-client-glib-2.0.so.8 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libspice-client-glib-2.0.so.8 (0x00007f2f5f61f000) To add SPICE support, I simply added 'libspice-client-gtk-3.0-dev' to the Build-Depends list in debian/control. ** Affects: virt-viewer (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/1212979 Title: virt-viewer lacks SPICE support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/virt-viewer/+bug/1212979/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
