          Priority: medium
            Bug ID: 65185
          Assignee: spice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
           Summary: Xspice: failure to bind to port should be an error,
                    not a warning
          Severity: enhancement
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: All
          Reporter: zbyszek at in.waw.pl
          Hardware: Other
            Status: NEW
           Version: unspecified
         Component: xorg qxl
           Product: Spice

Xspice isn't very useful without the TCP connection possibility. When the port
is busy:

$ Xspice --disable-ticketing --xsession /usr/bin/gnome-terminal :0 --port 5900
...
(/usr/bin/Xspice:6677): Spice-Warning **: reds.c:3037:reds_init_socket:
reds_init_socket: binding socket to :5900 failed
...

If the port was explicitly requested, failure to bind should be prominently
displayed, and preferably result in a termination of Xspice.
