It's the latest stable version, so it is the stablest and most bug
free version. I don't know if it fixes this bug, but it's worth
trying.
You can find out a list of things fixed in 1.16.15 by looking at the
commits here:
http://fedorapeople.org/gitweb?p=rjones/public_git/libguestfs.git;a=log;h...
I checked /var/log/messages and it looks like the problem was because
of a missing 'virtio-win' package in the F16 conversion server:
Apr 5 23:25:20 virt-p2v virt-v2v[9165]: FATAL: Installation failed
because the following file
s referenced in the configuration file are required, but missing:
/usr/share/virtio-win/driver
s/i386/Win2003
Apr 5 23:25:20 virt-p2v virt-v2v[9165]: FATAL: Died at
/usr/bin/virt-p2v-server line 394, <>
line 7.
Apr 5 23:25:20 virt-p2v virt-v2v[9165]: WARNING: Error messages were
written to /var/log/virt
-p2v-server.1333670581.log.
Apr 5 23:25:20 virt-p2v virt-v2v[9165]: p2v-server exited.
Should I install the virtio-win rpm from RHEL 6 into F16 or is there
any virtio-win package for Fedora somewhere?
Thanks,
