[opensuse-factory] new package: spice-vdagent
Hi, since SPICE is totally non-spicy without the guest agent, I'd like to get spice-vdagent into Factory. It's the thing that makes linux guests in KVM behave similar like Windows guests or linux guests inside Virtualbox: resize the window and the guest resizes, too. It is said to also make copy'n'paste work, but I could not get this going for me. I'm looking for the right devel project. "Virtualization" is obviously unmaintained and thus I'm opting for Base:System (simply because I can accept my SR there by myself).

Well, try to become maintainer in Virtualization I would say? There surely are some active people in its maintainer list? Ciao, Marcus -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Go ahead. Your permissions in Virtualization are now really spicy. Olaf -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org

Why do you draw that conclusion?
and thus I'm opting for Base:System (simply because I can accept my SR there by myself).
Please don't. This really belongs in Virtualization or maybe even in Virtualization:KVM Lets maintain a bit of discipline about where develop packes. Otherwise we might as well abandon the whole idea of development projects amd everyone can just fiddle in their home project and then submit to factory from there. A model I would not be very fond of.
Any better suggestions?
Yes, please help cleaning up rather than creating more smelly areas.
