The output of tar changes and we cannot parse it: $ LANG=fr_FR tar tRvf /mnt/scratch/libguestfs-1.45.5.tar.gz | head -2 bloc 2 : drwxr-xr-x rjones/rjones 0 2021-04-09 11:37 libguestfs-1.45.5/ bloc 5 : -rw-rw-r-- rjones/rjones 26530 2020-03-06 19:31 libguestfs-1.45.5/COPYING.LIB $ LANG=en_GB tar tRvf /mnt/scratch/libguestfs-1.45.5.tar.gz | head -2 block 2: drwxr-xr-x rjones/rjones 0 2021-04-09 11:37 libguestfs-1.45.5/ block 5: -rw-rw-r-- rjones/rjones 26530 2020-03-06 19:31 libguestfs-1.45.5/COPYING.LIB This is a bug in both virt-v2v and nbdkit, but should be easy to fix.
