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.

I think your installation is broken, because remote-viewer does have a man page included in the RPM and viewing it works fine for me.

$ rpm -qlp virt-viewer-0.5.2-16.el6.x86_64.rpm | grep man
/usr/share/man/man1/remote-viewer.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/virt-viewer.1.gz

Hi Daniel,
The manual page works well,I mean the manual page doesn't mention the new added graphic tool.
I found that there is a new graphic tool after run remote-viewer without a URI,so I think the tool should be described in remote-viewer manual. Dose it make sense?

Thanks,
Yuping

Tested with:
virt-viewer-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64

# man remote-viewer
DESCRIPTION
       remote-viewer is a simple remote display client. The supported protocols are SPICE and VNC.

       Starting remote-viewer without URI will open a simple dialog with an entry and a list of
       previously successfully access URI.


The manual has mentioned the GUI tool,so move the bug as VERIFIED.
