RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Clutter-WARNING **: The actor 'ClutterBox' is currently inside an allocation cycle; calling clutter_actor_queue_relayout() is not recommended

Comment 1 Christophe Fergeau 2012-08-08 11:14:49 UTC
To be honest, I wouldn't recommend spending too much time testing 3.4.2, boxes 3.5.5 which will land soon should be much smoother

Comment 2 Martin 2012-08-08 12:47:58 UTC
Ok, I'll wait for gnome-boxes-3.5.5-1.el7 rebuild, last attempt failed and gnome-boxes-3.5.4.1-2.el7 is unusable for me (Source selection screen is not responding.).

I've pushed a successful build this morning:

Comment 4 Martin 2012-08-09 15:59:21 UTC
libspice-client is missing in Brew:

Comment 5 Christophe Fergeau 2012-08-09 16:09:03 UTC
Weird, it's there https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=227586 and they have the expected provides:

$ rpm -qp --provides ./spice-gtk3-0.12.101-1.el7.x86_64.rpm |grep spice
spice-gtk3 = 0.12.101-1.el7
spice-gtk3(x86-64) = 0.12.101-1.el7
libspice-client-gtk-3.0.so.4()(64bit)  
libspice-client-gtk-3.0.so.4(SPICEGTK_1)(64bit)  

$ rpm -qp --provides ./spice-glib-0.12.101-1.el7.x86_64.rpm |grep spice
spice-glib = 0.12.101-1.el7
spice-glib(x86-64) = 0.12.101-1.el7
libspice-client-glib-2.0.so.8()(64bit)  
libspice-client-glib-2.0.so.8(SPICEGTK_1)(64bit)

Comment 6 Martin 2012-08-09 16:31:22 UTC
OK, updated.

I have same issues as with boxes-3.5.4.1-2.el7. Source selection screen is not responding when clicking on  "Fedora", "Enter URL" and "Select a file", "Cancel" and "Back" works. see screenshot

Comment 8 Christophe Fergeau 2012-08-10 08:09:44 UTC
This is not supposed to look like that at all, it seems like Boxes css is not used. Are there any warnings in the console related to that?

Comment 9 Martin 2012-08-10 11:46:07 UTC
(gnome-boxes:1587): Boxes-WARNING **: main.vala:89: gtk-style.css:109:18: Horizontal and vertical offsets are required

Comment 10 Christophe Fergeau 2012-08-10 11:52:30 UTC
Is that with gtk3-3.5.8-2.el7 ?

Comment 14 Martin 2013-06-11 15:42:41 UTC
Seems to be ok in Gnome 3.6 and 3.8.

Comment 15 Ludek Smid 2014-06-13 09:52:13 UTC
