It came with F20. I'm on F20 and don't think many other people are. Is it a

greg@dauntless:~$ yum list installed virt-viewer

You got me, but it should certainly give some error message, no?
Not when you don't trust the cert authority. Unfortunately. That's why we added
the page to such a prominent place:)
