Hi,
Spice-vdagent is not run by Gnome session because
spice-vdagent.desktop is patched incorrectly.
spice-vdagent.desktop is shown as:
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Spice vdagent
Comment=Agent for Spice guests
Exec=/gnu/store/5wk50f4zhhmg0s599z3d6v5zraxp72jp-spice-vdagent-0.17.0/bin/spice-vdagentTerminal=false
Type=Application
Categories=
X-GNOME-Autostart-Phase=Initialization
So gnu/packages/spice.scm should be modified as below:
--- gnu/packages/spice.scm.orig 2018-11-12 02:03:57.067760458 +0900
+++ gnu/packages/spice.scm 2018-11-12 02:04:38.559875648 +0900
