[Qemu-discuss] Qemu spice support on arm64 issue

[Yaguang Tang]

Hi all,

I am trying to make openstack work on arm64, when setting spice for VM,
qemu complains that qxl is not available, my env:

qemu 2.8 compiled with the following:

./configure --enable-spice --enable-kvm --target-list=aarch64-softmmu
perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
        LANGUAGE = (unset),
        LC_ALL = (unset),

    are supported and installed on your system.

--spice port=5900,disable-ticketing -cpu host -vga qxl

Is there anything I am missing or wrong ?
