Basically yes. A bit more complicated due to modules. gtk, sdl and cocoa are checked, in that order. And if none of them is available the vnc server is enabled. > Does the work on adding > #if support to qapi make it introspectible what the default is? Due to modules it isn't a compile time constant. With a modular build and gtk being packaged as separate sub-rpm the default depends on whenever the sub-rpm is installed or not. So I guess the answer is "no". cheers, Gerd
