| Fixed In Version: | spice-gtk-0.20-3.el6 | Doc Type: | Bug Fix |
| Doc Text: |
Cause: Now that spice-gtk is built against newer gtk+/glib versions, it has a runtime dependency on these versions
Consequence: Upgrading spice-gtk without upgrading gtk+/glib at the same time would cause application using spice-gtk to crash at startup
Fix: Adjust the RPM dependencies so that spice-gtk RPMs require new enough versions of gtk+/glib
Result: spice-gtk cannot be installed unless the gtk+/glib versions it needs are installed as well.

Adding an explicit requirement is easy (if glib used symbol versioning it would even be done automatically), and this avoids confusion if people try to cherry-pick just a few updated packages, so I'd be in favour of having these version bumps as this potentially avoid more bug reports like this one. I tried with the virt-viewer-0.5.6-5.el6.
If I didn't update the glib2, the error message when I install virt-viewer is:
Error: Package: virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64 (/virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64)
Requires: gtk2 >= 2.20
Installed: gtk2-2.18.9-12.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-RedHatEnterpriseLinux-201301301459.x86_64/6.4)
gtk2 = 2.18.9-12.el6
Error: Package: virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64 (/virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64)
Requires: glib2 >= 2.26
Installed: glib2-2.22.5-7.el6.x86_64 (@anaconda-RedHatEnterpriseLinux-201301301459.x86_64/6.4)
glib2 = 2.22.5-7.el6
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
As the result, set VERIFIED
