Hello,

This multi-disk ovf generates “no href in ovf:File (id=)”

Other single-disk ovfs on the same system work. I don’t have another multi-disk ova to try.

I’ve compared the syntax with the test file on github and it appears to be essentially the same:

virt-v2v/tests/test-v2v-i-ova-two-disks.ovf

Any suggestions?

Side note: I tried building libguestfs from source but failed so haven’t tried with latest (separate issue, but I think I resolved dependencies, then hit a podwrapper.pl issue).

Thank you,

Andrew
