After this thread and the spice-gtk 0.17 release, I'm _very_ surprised to
see some patches on top of the F18 and rawhide package, including (at
least) one patch which is mandatory to build spice-gtk with newer gtk+
versions. jhbuild is one downstream user which is impacted by this issue.

I haven't even seen this patch being sent to the mailing list, and I can't
find it in the archive. If this was pushed without being sent to the list,
this makes it even harder for anyone to be aware of the issue, and that
it's fixed in git.

Last but not least, your patches to the Fedora package are buggy:
$ pkg-config --modversion spice-client-gtk-2.0
0.17-dirty

Can we get a 0.17.1 release to fix all of this?

Thanks,

Christophe
