   SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
   =============================================================

SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.

Installation
------------

The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do

  ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
        --localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
  make
  sudo make install

Or to install into a private user specific location

  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
  make
  make install

The following mandatory dependencies are required in order to
build SPICE

    Spice protocol >= 0.14.0
    Pixman         >= 0.17.7
    OpenSSL
    libjpeg
    zlib

The following optional dependencies increase the available
functionality

    Cyrus-SASL
    libcacard      >= 2.5.1             (Smartcard support)
    Opus           >= 1.0.0             (Opus audio encoding support)
    LZ4                                 (LZ4 compression support)
    GStreamer      >= 1.0.0

Communication
-------------

To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel

There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:

   http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/

To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit

   https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/issues/new?

Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.

The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:
