The virtual machine console viewer application code
Go to file
Michael Weghorn 4676c57486 Make app-id and desktop file name match
The application uses an application-id of
"org.virt-manager.virt-viewer" (see function
remote_viewer_new in src/remote-viewer.c).

So far, there was a mismatch between this
application-id and the desktop file name,
resulting e.g. in no proper window icon being
used when running the app on KDE Plasma Wayland.

Adjust the name of the desktop and appdata
files to match the application-id as expected.

Also update the translatable strings using this
command:

    ninja -C _build virt-viewer-pot

Virt Viewer

Virt Viewer provides a graphical viewer for the guest OS display. At this time is supports guest OS using the VNC or SPICE protocols. Further protocols may be supported in the future as user demand dictates. The viewer can connect directly to both local and remotely hosted guest OS, optionally using SSL/TLS encryption.

Virt Viewer is the GTK3 application. Virt Viewer 3.0 was the last release that supported GTK2.

Virt Viewer uses the GTK-VNC (>= 0.4.0) widget to provide a display of the VNC protocol, which is available from

https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/gtk-vnc

Virt Viewer uses the SPICE-GTK (>= 0.35) widget to provide a display of the SPICE protocol, which is available from:

https://www.spice-space.org/download.html

Use of either SPICE-GTK or GTK-VNC can be disabled at time of configure, with --without-gtk-vnc or --without-spice-gtk respectively.

Virt Viewer uses libvirt to lookup information about the guest OS display. This is available from

https://libvirt.org/
