Hi,
I am working on cleaning up a dependency issue that was brought up with the FreeBSD port for virt-manager, and wanted to confirm that virt-manager doesn't require any gnome1 (gnome one, that is) libraries.
I've done all the checking and building from my end to determine that it doesn't, however I would like a confirmation, if possible.
No application from the last 5+ years should require Gnome1. Any that have not ported to gnome 2 by now must be pretty unmaintained. virt-manager certainly does not require gnome1, and I'm fairly sure it does not even require gnome2 either.

Gnome 1 is pretty unlikely. I don't think any of those packages are even in Fedora. Here is the dependency list for virt-manager in a recent Fedora: /bin/sh GConf2 dbus-python >= 0.61 dbus-x11 desktop-file-utils gnome-keyring >= 0.4.9 gnome-python2-gconf >= 1.99.11-7 gnome-python2-gnomekeyring >= 2.15.4 gtk-vnc-python >= 0.3.8 libvirt-python >= 0.7.0 libxml2-python >= 2.6.23 pygtk2 >= 1.99.12-6 pygtk2-libglade python-virtinst >= 0.600.0 scrollkeeper spice-gtk-python virt-manager-common = 0.9.0-5.fc16 vte >= 0.12.2 But remember this is a "full fat" virt-manager. You can get away with fewer features. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-top is 'top' for virtual machines.
