[ovirt-users] virt-viewer disabling rhel6

[cmc]

Hi,

virt-viewer no longer appears to work when trying to launch a console
with EL 6.8 and oVirt 4.1. The error is:

"At least Remote Viewer version 99.0-1 is required to setup this connection"

When I ran remote-viewer in debug mode, it seems that it is
deliberately disabling rhel6 by setting the version to a non-existent
version:

(remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-160'
for OS id 'rhev-win64'
(remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-160'
for OS id 'rhev-win32'
(remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '2.0-6'
for OS id 'rhel7'
(remote-viewer:23829): remote-viewer-DEBUG: Minimum version '99.0-1'
for OS id 'rhel6'

rhel 6.7 (and presumably brfore) works fine. I contacted the
maintainers of virt-viewer and they said that this is an ovirt issue.
Is this somehow disabled in 4.1? Can someone tell me why this is the
case?

Thanks in advance for any insights,

Cam
