Bug Description
When running under Wayland, which is the default in Artful, virt-manager doesn't correctly restore the window size when starting, and can't properly resize VM windows.
This is fixed in the newer version, and bionic now has the two backported patches.
[Test Case]
- Open virt-manager, resize the main window.
- Open it, see if the window size is identical. (It may help to do it multiple times to see it get bigger)
- With a VM window open, click on View/Resize to VM, see if the window size accurately reflects the VM.
[Regression Potential]
The patches fix the way window sizes are calculated. A regression would result in erroneous window sizes.
