Hi all,
I've pushed the my work-in-progress gtk3 port of virt-manager to git, under
the 'gtk3' branch:
http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/virt-manager.git/log/?h=gtk3
It's generally working fine but there are still some big chunks of work I'd
like to finish before cutting a release, outlined in todo.txt in the repo
(also attached):
http://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/virt-manager.git/tree/todo.txt?h=gtk3&id=dd15447580c42e017beac05e16466317a01a6649
Patches and testing appreciated.
Thanks,
Cole
TODO before upstream merge
==========================
drop autotools:
- at least investigate it, distutils-extra should give us what we need
- will make the virtinst merge much easier
merge virtinst:
- no big clean up, just get it all + unit tests working
- merge history or just add code?
TODO before first release
=========================
check all XXX/TODO in the code, make sure nothing important is missing
verify gettext still works
is tui working? maybe just remove it, check with mcpierce
gsettings port (or fix gconf bindings)
gtkapplication + drop dbus uniqueness stuff? at least investigate it
python3? consider it
Misc issues
===========
If libvirt connection is dropped, app segfaults
segfault if open test:///default, then try and open testdriver that libvirt can't parse XML
test:///default->test->Details: Switch to processor page and 'apply' is activated, shouldn't happen. I think it affects master branch as well
removing hardware can give:

virt-manager: drop all the HAL code, we could convert to udev but it's not
really worth it given interface + nodedev APIs
start a spice guest, shrink the window to smaller than guest resolution, scrollbars work but don't have any actual 'bar'.
After virtinst merge
====================
enable all pep8 bits
pylint: drop shell script, stick it in setup.py
drop old stuff from both spec files
update README
pull out all python-virtinst selinux stuff, drop spec dep
virtinst initrd test: drop the big files? just stub em out
Problems in other packages

Manager spacing bug
===================
spacing is weird in manager, prefs window. cant have unequal tree rows
- have 3 rows: qemu, test default, test custom
-- connect to test:///default, watch the parent rows expand
- doing col.set_sizing(Gtk.TreeViewColumnSizing.AUTOSIZE) for the stats
column helps but doesn't fix it entirely, the bottom row will still
expand weirdly.
- save this till the end, narrow it down to a simple reproducer and try and
fix, probably a gtk3 issue.
- list size issues: master actually has bigger list size than collapsed gtk3 rows, maybe that is part of the issue.
Object leaks
============
objects leak on cleanup, pygobject has reference counting issues
- https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=692044
- https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693111
- leak detection disabled in the manager.py for now
- see if gtk.grab_get_current autodrawer leak fixed by gtk3
