Prior to this update, certain spice-xpi properties were not recorded in the spice-xpi.log file. These properties were only displayed in the /var/log/messages file. With this update, spice-xpi has been modified to properly log reading or setting the "smartcard", "color-depth", "disable-effects", and "proxy" properties of the spice-xpi browser plug-in. As a result, these events are now visible in spice-xpi.log.
Description of problem:
It was discovered that spice-xpi uses proxy even RHEVM had proxy option unchecked in Console options.
During troubleshooting there was no info about proxy in spice-xpi.log but in /var/log/messages SPICE_PROXY appeared (reality).
See BZ1049475 for logs...
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
spice-xpi-2.7-24.el6.x86_64
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to Reproduce:
1. RHEVM: define proxy, restart engine, open console while proxy is unchecked

3.
Actual results:
inconsistency
Expected results:
if in fact proxy is used it should be visible in spice-xpi.log

Note that in rhel 7, there will be no spice-xpi.log. remote-viewer will log debug messages (enable with G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=all) with the controller properties it received.
