[Spice-devel] MacOS SPICE client

[Edwin Peer]

Hi there,

After battling unsuccessfully with jhbuild, I was pleased to find this 
page on the SPICE wiki: http://spice-space.org/page/OSX_Client

Only problem, it doesn't seem to work. Fonts are rendered as blocks and 
I get this if I run it from a terminal:

<snip>
rincewind:MacOS espeer$ ./RemoteViewer-bin

(process:1047): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
Using the fallback 'C' locale.

(RemoteViewer-bin:1047): Pango-CRITICAL **: No modules found:
No builtin or dynamically loaded modules were found.
PangoFc will not work correctly.
This probably means there was an error in the creation of:
'/Users/foo/spice-jhbuild/inst/etc/pango/pango.modules'
You should create this file by running:
pango-querymodules > '/Users/foo/spice-jhbuild/inst/etc/pango pango.modules'

(RemoteViewer-bin:1047): Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, 
expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderCoreText', script='common'

(RemoteViewer-bin:1047): Pango-WARNING **: failed to choose a font, 
expect ugly output. engine-type='PangoRenderCoreText', script='latin'

(RemoteViewer-bin:1047): Gtk-WARNING **: Could not find the icon 
'(null)'. The 'hicolor' theme
  was not found either, perhaps you need to install it.
  You can get a copy from:
  http://icon-theme.freedesktop.org/release

I've tried to create pang.modules as instructed, but still get the same 
result:

I'm running Mountain Lion and don't really know my way around MacOS all 
that well. Would appreciate any help I could get.
