[solved] SPICE (virtualized desktop solution)

Spice[1] is a virtualized desktop solution from Red Hat recently released to the public (09 December). It defines a couple of protocols and provides a implementation of all necessary components. The server is currently more or less baked into a custom QEMU (iwith KVM), but that tie is not meant to stay. Also, at the moment some of the deps are custom/modified versions of common libraries, but I expect stuff to be worked upstream with time.

EDIT: gaah, I see now that deps are missing on the main components.
Likely both of them require the listed deps. But no more time to test and fix today
