Description Kelvin 2015-08-15 15:08:59 UTC

Description of problem:

The Recent Connections list isn't being populated and is consistently empty.  I've experienced this since Ubuntu 14.04 through 15.04 which still ship with virt-viewer 1.0.  I decided to build from source expecting the problem was already resolved but have experienced the exact same symptoms.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 

Built from source using 2.0 tarball

How reproducible:

100% Consistent.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start guest.
2. Run remote-viewer binary.
3. Populate the connection url and connect to guest session.
4. Shutdown the guest.
5. Start guest again and run the remote-viewer binary.

No Recent Connection information is populated.

Actual results:

Empty Recent Connections box.

Expected results:

Previous successful connection URL's to be pre-populated.

Comment 1 Eugene 2018-01-31 01:27:42 UTC

A'm confirming that. Version 6 has this stupid bug. Otherwise v5 is ok.
Tested on Windows 7 SP1.

Comment 2 andcycle-bugzilla.redhat.com 2018-09-30 19:12:23 UTC

and this bus exist in version 7, well done.
