It seems like SUSE developer Cédric Bosdonnat made that addition. He
actually removed metacity and replaced it with icewm-lite
(commit cebcf47f6) and then made the change to the launch script to
select the right WM (commit 75c24c710). However he didn't make any
corresponding change to Fedora so we now have both.
icewm is available in RHEL 9. I don't know if there's any reason to
prefer metacity over icewm. Usually when looking at virt-p2v
dependencies, we tended to prefer, in order:
Only in EPEL-9, not in base RHEL-9 AFAIK.:
# dnf list | grep icewm
icewm.x86_64 2.9.9-1.el9
epel
...
With regards,
