That is remove explicit requirement in configure script?
I can see that spice-core.h (spice-server, one of the mail include) is
including spice-protocol headers.
Looking at configure both are required so would make sense to check
only spice-server, unless packaging has some bugs if you have spice-server
(devel) installed you also have spice-protocol.
