           Summary: spice-vdagentd not running at startup and cannot be
                    enabled to do it

SUMMARY

When running KDE Neon as a VM guest in QEMU, I'm not getting screen auto-resize
or clipboard sharing, etc. I have to manually run 'spice-vdagent'. It works out
of the box in Ubuntu though.

If I want to enable the service with 'sudo systemctl enable spice-vdagentd I
get:

vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
The unit files have no installation config (WantedBy=, RequiredBy=, Also=,
Alias= settings in the [Install] section, and DefaultInstance= for template
units). This means they are not meant to be enabled using systemctl.

Possible reasons for having this kind of units are:
• A unit may be statically enabled by being symlinked from another unit's
  .wants/ or .requires/ directory.
• A unit's purpose may be to act as a helper for some other unit which has
  a requirement dependency on it.
• A unit may be started when needed via activation (socket, path, timer,
  D-Bus, udev, scripted systemctl call, ...).
• In case of template units, the unit is meant to be enabled with some
  instance name specified.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run KDE Neon guest VM in QEMU
2. Open it with Virtual Machine Manager or Remove Viewer
3. If opening it with Virtual Machine Manager enable the option "Autoresize VM
with window"
4. Resize VM window.
5. Also, copy something to clipboard in your host
6. Try to paste it in your guest
7. Copy something to clipboard in your guest
8. Try to paste it in your host

OBSERVED RESULT
Guest resolution does not adjust.
Clipboard sharing does not occur.

EXPECTED RESULT
Auto adjust guest resolution.
Clipboard sharing.
