Do you know why the client part of SPICE (spice-gtk) is not available on
freebsd? It's ported to Windows (and not a lot of Windows specific code
is required), so I'd expect it should be reasonably easy to get it to
work on FreeBSD.

At this point, I don't know why it isn't, however I remember when first looking at it and trying to
port it myself that it was using vulnerable software in its' code base and I haven't looked at it
in awhile.

Do you have a link to the client so I can just look into that? Perhaps I was going in too deep.

Thanks!
