Thanks Christophe

I have found this installed:

# dpkg -l | grep spice | sed -e 's/ \+/ /g' | cut -d' ' -f1,2

./configure --help | grep spice
  --without-spice-gtk     Ignore presence of spice-gtk and disable it

The output from configure sheds little light on what I need:

$ ./configure | tee /tmp/foo | grep -i spice
configure:    SPICE_GTK:

It looks like something is missing or not found as expected as SPICE_GTK remains unset. I'm thinking
I need something like a spice-gtk package but there appears to be none available. I'm not sure where
to look beyond here. Any further help is appreciated.
