Spice XPI 2.7 allows to select a client alternative.

In a near future (this week perhaps), with the release of virt-viewer >= 0.4.3, you'll be able to run:

sudo update-alternatives --config spice-xpi-client

There are 2 programs which provide 'spice-xpi-client'.

  Selection    Command
-----------------------------------------------
   1           /usr/libexec/spice-xpi-client-spicec
*+ 2           /usr/libexec/spice-xpi-client-remote-viewer

Enter to keep the current selection[+], or type selection number: 

(remote viewer will be picked up by default if it's installed)
