I'm trying to use virt-sysprep on an Ubuntu 13.10 vm running on OpenStack.
I've followed the command "gotchas" from the FAQ and still not had
any luck.
*What are you trying to do?*
Attempting to use virt-sysprep on a qcow2 image made with virt-install
*What commands?*
I've run virt-sysprep (with both -d and -a options) and gotten the
following error:
Fatal error: exception Guestfs.Error("guestfs_launch failed.
This usually means the libguestfs appliance failed to start or crashed.
See http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-faq.1.html#debugging-libguestfs
or run 'libguestfs-test-tool' and post the *complete* output into a
bug report
I then went through the FAQ and followed the recommended steps.
Running libguestft-test-tool yields:

If you enable core dumps, do you get any core files, and which process is core dumping and what is the stack trace? libguestfs-test-tool works for me, with: seabios 1.7.3-1 qemu 1.5.0+dfsg-3ubuntu5.2 libguestfs-tools 1:1.22.4-1ubuntu1 vmlinuz-3.11.0-15-generic Which qemu & kernel are you using?
