[Spice-devel] spice-gtk - no element appsrc

Hello,

I'm getting these warnings when running remote-viewer:

```
** (remote-viewer:13315): WARNING **: Couldn't connect to
accessibility bus: Failed to connect to socket /tmp/dbus-mv7zMXN5YD:
Connection refused
(remote-viewer:13315): Spice-WARNING **:
channel-display-gst.c:303:create_pipeline: GStreamer error: no element
"appsrc"
(remote-viewer:13315): Gtk-WARNING **: Allocating size to SpiceDisplay
0xb26320 without calling gtk_widget_get_preferred_width/height(). How
does the code know the size to allocate?
```

I'm mainly concerned with the second one since I think this is what's
preventing spice-vdagent from getting window resize events. (Clipboard
works). Since I've packaged the relevant packages myself (qemu, spice,
spice-gtk, virt-viewer, usbredir, spice-vdagent) - All packages are
the latest releases, I'm assuming it's a packaging problem (a missing
dependency or something). I looked at the arch linux PKGBUILD for
reference and I noticed that spice-gtk didn't have gstreamer or
gst-base-plugins listed as a dependency. Are these somehow optional?

Can you please help me figure out how to get this working?

Thanks
David
