Package spice-gtk-0.6 has been rebuilt on Natty to support gobject-introspection.Notice, that it was GTK2 build. Only GTK2 build creates SpiceClientGtk.so,which allows you to open Spice Console via virt-manager. Fedora 16 (rawhide) does two parallel builds GTK2 and GTK3

Analysis of spice-gtk-0.6-1.fc16.src.rpm clearly shows how packages are supposed to be created separating directories with GTK2 and GTK3 shared libraries. Actually, spice-gtk.spec works as a sample to create debian’s package.install files, providing an option reproduce exactly the same files layout on Ubuntu 11.10 as it appears to be on F16 (rawhide) after install package spice-gtk-0.6-1.
