Comment 2 RHEL Product and Program Management 2013-01-29 01:47:13 EST

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.

Comment 5 Hans de Goede 2013-04-11 11:23:28 EDT

This is fixed by this commit:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/linux/vd_agent/commit/?id=a3dea8eb4b7175eb22e15f5696fbc186464a033b

Which adds a -X cmdline option for the system level spice-vdagentd, which disables its use of console-kit or systemd-logind.

Comment 11 Hans de Goede 2013-06-26 02:49:19 EDT

This is fixed in spice-vdagent-0.14.0-1.el6 moving to MODIFIED,
