RHBA-2016:2229 - virt-viewer, libgovirt, spice-gtk, and usbredir bug fix and enhancement update


Synopsis

virt-viewer, libgovirt, spice-gtk, and usbredir bug fix and enhancement update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory None

Topic

An update for virt-viewer, libgovirt, spice-gtk, and usbredir is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.

Description

The virt-viewer packages provide Virtual Machine Viewer, which is a lightweight interface for interacting with the graphical display of a virtualized guest.

The libgovirt packages contain a library that allows applications to use the oVirt Representational State Transfer (REST) API to list virtual machines (VMs) managed by an oVirt instance. The library is also used to get the connection parameters needed to establish a connection to the VMs using Simple Protocol For Independent Computing Environments (SPICE) or Virtual Network Computing (VNC).

The spice-gtk packages provide a GIMP Toolkit (GTK+) widget for Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments (SPICE) clients. Both Virtual Machine Manager and Virtual Machine Viewer can make use of this widget to access virtual machines using the SPICE protocol.

The usbredir packages provide a network protocol for sending USB device traffic over a network connection and a number of libraries to help implement support for this protocol.

For detailed information on changes in this release, see the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.3 Release Notes linked from the References section.

Users of virt-viewer, libgovirt, spice-gtk, and usbredir are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
