Description Martin Kolman 2024-03-21 14:57:24 UTC
Looks like there is an upstream MR that has been merged, which introduces a systemd service for starting GNOME remote desktop in headless mode: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-remote-desktop/-/merge_requests/215/diffs

This would be useful for the Anaconda installer, which plans to use GNOME remote desktop to provide remote desktop access (via RDP). Currently we need to start the gnome-remote-desktop-daemon binary directly & starting a systemd service would be much more convenient.

We are also seeing some spurious error messages that seem to come from either GNOME remote desktop or GNOME kiosk in --headless mode only. Maybe that would be resolved by using gnome-remote-desktop-headless.service as well, possibly by systemd catching all the spurious output and correctly forwarding it to Journal.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.install the gnome-remote-desktop package
2.try to interact with the gnome-remote-desktop-headless.service
Actual Results:  
The gnome-remote-desktop-headless.service is not available.

Expected Results:  
The gnome-remote-desktop-headless.service is available and can be started.
