** Description changed: A new major release of virt-manager has been released and is in debian unstable/testing. I'll go through all the Ubuntu changes to confirm what's still needed. Still to check: * Merge from Debian. Remaining changes: (LP: #1556671) - debian/control: + Depend on gir1.2-appindicator3-0.1 for appindicator support. + Add lsb-release to Build-Depends so we can detect whether we're running on Ubuntu or Debian. + Change Recommends to libvirt-bin instead of libvirt-daemon-system which isn't available in Ubuntu - debian/rules: + Set qemu user to libvirt-qemu so appropriate permissions get set. + Set the preferred distro so we appear first in the list. + Remove data/gschemas.compiled generated by clean. - d/p/virtinst/9006_fix_path_to_qemu-dm.patch: drop the full path from qemu-dm as already done for hvmloader and pygrub. The Xen tools will handle this and add the missing path. - - d/p/use_ubuntu_package_names.patch: Suggest installing the packages - that are actually available in Ubuntu. + - d/p/add_qemu_binaries.patch: add the actual binary name from the qemu packages so default hypervisor detection works properly on first run. Still needed on unity - no point in upstreaming at this point - d/p/leave-mnemonics-alone-on-focus-change.patch: Leave gtk-enable-mnemonics setting alone under Unity when windows change focus. - Not upstream: - d/p/more_helpful_error_message.patch: explain to the user why connecting to qemu:///system failed and how to fix it. Upstreaming: nothing currently Just landed upstream (not in 1.4.0 release): - d/p/use_qxl_for_ubuntu.patch: use qxl by default for Ubuntu VMs, it seems to work better than vmvga now. Laneded - https://github.com/virt-manager/virt-manager/pull/23 No Longer Needed * debian/patches/0001-details-Fix-screenshot-on-F24-rawhide-bz-1297988.patch: Cherry-pick from upstream. Fix screenshot capture with newer gdk-pixbuf/pygobject. (LP: #1571702) - Upstream Fix virt-install so that it can install 16.04 and newer images. Error message is 'Couldn't find hvm kernel for Ubuntu tree Closes (LP: #1634304) - urlfetcher_Fix_ubuntu_location.patch - upsteam * debian/patches/use_virtio_for_pseries_disks.patch: virtinst: Use virtio bus type for disks on pSeries machines. Closes LP: #1597610. Upstream - d/p/virtinst/dont_disable_vmport.patch: Don't disable vmport even if we're using spice, as this prevents having a seamless mouse when using Ubuntu as a guest. - I have seamless mouse integration without this. - Drop these patches: - Not sure if still needed, doesn't understand what this is avoiding confusion for. Leaning to not needed. - d/p/mark-libvirt-lxc: Clearly mark the LXC connections as being libvirt-lxc, to avoid confusion due to differing features and configurations. + *Not sure if still needed, doesn't understand what this is avoiding confusion for. Leaning to not needed. - The defaults look fine to me, if someone is installing Xen I'm guessing - they are likely to actually want it. (prefer-qemu.patch) - d/p/prefer- - qemu.patch: Prefer QEMU as the default URI, even if it's not installed. + - d/p/prefer-qemu.patch: Prefer QEMU as the default URI, even if it's not installed. + * The defaults look fine to me, if someone is installing Xen I'm guessing they are likely to actually want it. + + - d/p/use_ubuntu_package_names.patch: Suggest installing the packages that are actually available in Ubuntu. + * Most users don't actually want qemu-system, defaults are likely fine
