fixed upstream by: commit 419b34bb2e60c54d3258c01d9d05a288c47649f2 Author: Tomoki Sekiyama <tomoki.sekiyama> Date: Wed Aug 7 19:04:18 2013 -0400 VirtualCharDevice: Enable channels with char devices other than spicevmc Currently, virt-manager supports adding spicevmc channel, and cannot add channels with char device backends like pty or unix, which is often used by guest agents. On the other hand, spicevmc shows up for serial and parallel devices, that causes an error if chosen. This enables virt-manager to add channels with a char device backend other than spicevmc, and hides spicevmc from non-channel devices. Signed-off-by: Tomoki Sekiyama <tomoki.sekiyama>
