This request was not resolved in time for the current release. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if still desired, for consideration in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
This request was erroneously removed from consideration in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4, which is currently under development. This request will be evaluated for inclusion in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4.
No upstream fix. Likely to be fixed in time for RHEL 7 by integrating libosinfo for CD/installer detection. Setting RHEL 6.5 flags just in case we rebase.
Ignore comment 3. There are issues getting an icon from a Windows guest, and we can only do it in a limited set of circumstances. There is no upstream fix at the moment. Possibly this will be fixed in RHEL 7 or RHEL 6.5 if we rebase.
I'm closing this because I had a long look at various Windows guests to see if it is possible to extract an icon from within the guest, and I cannot see how to do it. I have to assume this is not possible unless someone works out a way.
