Libguestfs - Jul 2017 - cannot find any suitable libguestfs supermin

I download libguestfs from github and fetch to the *origin master*.

I tried to build libguestfs in my own linux distro and I followd the
http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-building.1.html#using-a-prebuilt-binary-appliance
to replace with supermin

I download the appliance-1.30.1.tar.xz and appliance-1.30.1.tar.xz.sig
and extract the tarball to /home/user/appliance
and export LIBGUESTFS_PATH=/*home/user/appliance*

Then I build libguestfs  below:
> ./autogen.sh --disable-appliance --disable-daemon
> make
make install DESTDIR=/tmp

It builds fine.

And guestfish version is 1.37.18

But I got error when I execute guestfish:
> guestfish

> error:    libguestfs: error: cannot find any suitable libguestfs supermin,
> fixed or old-style appliance on LIBGUESTFS_PATH

But I echo $LIBGUESTFS_PATH, it's */home/user/appliance*

I don't know how come going wrong

You need to download this appliance:

  http://download.libguestfs.org/binaries/appliance/appliance-1.36.1.tar.xz

and unpack it under /home/user/appliance/ .

Directly inside the /home/user/appliance directory you should see
files called "initrd", "kernel", "README.fixed"
and "root".

If it still doesn't work then you'll have to post the complete output
of ‘libguestfs-test-tool’.

I download the newset package and extract in my
path(/share/CACHEDEV1_DATA/appliance/) and set env
It doesn't work.
and I run the libugestfs-test-tool:
