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.

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start a guest with spice grphics
# virsh start rhel6.3_spice
2. connect the guest with virt-viewer
# virt-viewer rhel6.3 --debug
3. change the graphics to vnc and do step2 again

Actual results:
step 2:

Expected results:
virt-viewer can connect the guest and work well.

Comment 2 Cui Lei 2013-07-02 06:58:13 UTC
As it is RHEL-6.5-candidate, change to version to 6.5

This symbol comes with the glib2 2.26 rebase, you need  https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=279312 for example.
It would be worth explicitly requiring this version in the spice-gtk build.

Similarly to the previous comment, you need to get the rebased 6.5 gtk2 package to avoid this issue, for example https://brewweb.devel.redhat.com/buildinfo?buildID=277007
And virt-viewer should get a require for a new enough gtk2 version to avoid such issues.

Comment 6 Marc-Andre Lureau 2013-07-02 13:14:22 UTC
I am not sure we need to explicitely bump the requirement in the spec. Those bugs quite clearly indicate that the update or the compose is not in sync with the build environment. It's not really the spec fault.

Comment 7 Marc-Andre Lureau 2013-07-05 13:21:12 UTC
this is a distro/release error, and the problem is solved by a correct update, so lower severity/blocker.

Comment 9 CongDong 2013-07-10 02:52:50 UTC
I can reproduce this bug with virt-viewer-0.5.6-1.el6.x86_64.
Steps:
As the steps in description.

result:
# virt-viewer test
(virt-viewer:26240): virt-viewer-DEBUG: Couldn't load configuration: File is empty
virt-viewer: symbol lookup error: virt-viewer: undefined symbol: g_object_bind_property



Verify:
I install the new virt-viewer, version:0.5.6-3.el6

Steps:
# virt-viewer test

result:
# virt-viewer test
(virt-viewer:26345): virt-viewer-DEBUG: Couldn't load configuration: File is empty
virt-viewer: symbol lookup error: virt-viewer: undefined symbol: g_object_bind_property

As the result, I think the problem is still there, so change to ASSIGNED.
The steps is right? Or I should update the gtk2 and glib2 manually.

Comment 10 Christophe Fergeau 2013-07-10 09:12:33 UTC
Ah, the change was done in the BuildRequires while what we need is Requires with explicit versioning, something like:

diff --git a/virt-viewer.spec b/virt-viewer.spec

--- a/virt-viewer.spec

So I think virt-viewer should popup a message like:

Requires: gtk2 >= 2.20

not:

(virt-viewer:26345): virt-viewer-DEBUG: Couldn't load configuration: File is empty
virt-viewer: symbol lookup error: virt-viewer: undefined symbol: g_object_bind_property

Comment 12 Christophe Fergeau 2013-07-29 09:12:49 UTC
Should be good with latest build

Comment 14 CongDong 2013-07-30 01:34:10 UTC
I tried with the virt-viewer-0.5.6-5.el6.
If I didn't update the gtk2, the error message when I install virt-viewer is:

Error: Package: virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64 (/virt-viewer-0.5.6-6.el6.x86_64)

               gtk2 = 2.18.9-12.el6

               glib2 = 2.22.5-7.el6
 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

As the result, set VERIFIED
