Occurs on windows builds, too (all windows versions/archs) mingw-virt-viewer-0.5.3-16 mingw-spice-gtk-0.12-9 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #813865 +++ +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #813375 +++ Description of problem: support ipv6 addresses on CLI. IPv6 passed via controller works. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): virt-viewer-0.5.2-4 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: try to connect to qemu over ipv6: 1. remote-viewer spice://ipv6_addr/?port=PORT 2. remote-viewer spice://[ipv6_addr]/?port=PORT 3. Actual results: none of above works Expected results: some of above works Additional info: when address is passed via controller, remote-viewer works --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-18 16:45:35 BST --- The RFC compliant syntax would be the second example you give > remote-viewer spice://[ipv6_addr]/?port=PORT I have confirmed that this is indeed broken for both SPICE and VNC. The VNC support can be fixed in virt-viewer itself. The SPICE fix needs to be done in SPICE-GTK --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-18 17:46:40 CEST --- Proof of concept upstream patch: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2012-April/008769.html --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-19 16:58:17 CEST --- Alternative patch now posted http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2012-April/008808.html --- Additional comment from acathrow on 2012-04-23 16:25:13 CEST --- What's the driver for this being a blocker for 6.3? --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-23 16:29:10 CEST --- AFAIK, IPv6 support was a requirement of any RHEL6 application, in this case we need spice-gtk to support it for virt-viewer, so that it can connect to an IPv6 enabled KVM host --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-23 18:54:29 CEST --- New (hopefully final) version of upstream patch http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2012-April/008833.html --- Additional comment from berrange on 2012-04-24 11:54:01 CEST --- Committed upstream in commit 50add15ef69cde34346e11b5c91e1257cecb2696 Author: Daniel P.

Deadline is less than 24 hours from now. The patches were not approved upstream. --- Additional comment from djasa on 2012-05-31 18:28:33 CEST --- please take bug #827115 into account when looking at the patches.
since it's in RHEL and we did a rebase, it should be fixed in RHEVM too, moving to MODIFIED (correct?)
