Hi Jared, which (Linux?) distribution are you using?

Without knowing any better, I'm kind of thinking this bit might be important:

  Error importing spice: No module named SpiceClientGtk

Is there a package for your distribution that would provide a Gtk client for Spice?

(if so, this also sounds like there's a dependency bug here in the virt-manager package, but that's another topic :> )

Regards and best wishes,
