For running other programs using local virt-v2v, you can use the
./run
script in the top build directory, eg:
~/virt-v2v/run ./some_script_that_uses_virt_v2v
And if you want to run virt-v2v from the locally built directory you
can do:
$ ./run virt-v2v ...
eg. to convert a local disk image but discard the output you could do:
$ ./run virt-v2v -v -x -i disk guest.qcow2 -o null
This is useful in combination with virt-builder for testing, eg:
$ virt-builder fedora-40 --install sparsedd
$ ./run virt-v2v -v -x -i disk fedora-40.img -o null
The ./run script will set the PATH and other environment variables
correctly so that the locally build virt-v2v runs.

virt-p2v converts physical machines to virtual machines. Boot with a
live CD or over the network (PXE) and turn machines into KVM guests.
