Description svlmrc 2023-12-10 22:01:27 UTC

It has many functionalities for managing/creating/logging/adding devices etc.
The original repo is here https://github.com/F1ash/qt-virt-manager
No commits since 2021, but it's in good shape and compiles fine under Qt 5.15.
It should be easy to integrate, basically just import the relevant Qt Widgets and add deps maybe.
The project also uses some C++ files from this very project (KRDC), namely MachineView and some derived classes.
I've tried and make some modifications to make it more KDE-friendly icon-wise, see here
https://github.com/paaspaas00/qt-virt-manager

Some ideas on how to improve it in the context of KDE Frameworks here the https://github.com/F1ash/qt-virt-manager/issues/55

It would really make KRDC a complete and fully featured admin console! :D

Morsik nailed it at https://github.com/F1ash/qt-virt-manager/issues/55

This not makes sense since KRDC is a remote desktop viewer and not a libvirt frontend for VM configurations. This are very different things.
