My reaction is a bit similar. It's useful to know whether spice-gtk.git
/ spice-server.git are working together with spice-common.git, however
I'd see this as purely informative. As this is a submodule, it can be
intentional/known that one of the module does not build (yet) with
spice-common master. But if it's not known, it's good to be informed of
this ;)
