Hi Is virt-v2v able to import a debian guest from an OVA archive ? According to the "true" in convert_linux.ml, I would have said yes let matching = function | { i_type = "linux"; i_distro = ("fedora" | "rhel" | "centos" | "scientificlinux" | "redhat-based" | "oraclelinux" | "sles" | "suse-based" | "opensuse") } -> true | { i_type = "linux"; i_distro = ("debian" | "ubuntu" | "linuxmint") } -> true | _ -> false But an OVA import fails with: virt-v2v --machine-readable -i ova turnkey-wordpress-14.1-jessie-amd64.ova -o qemu -of qcow2 -os v2v/ [ 0.0] Opening the source -i ova turnkey-wordpress-14.1-jessie-amd64.ova [ 1.2] Creating an overlay to protect the source from being modified [ 1.2] Initializing the target -o qemu -os v2v/ [ 1.2] Opening the overlay [ 3.5] Inspecting the overlay [ 4.8] Checking for sufficient free disk space in the guest [ 4.8] Estimating space required on target for each disk [ 4.8] Converting 8.4 to run on KVM virt-v2v: error: virt-v2v is unable to convert this guest type (linux/debian) Using: virt-v2v --version virt-v2v 1.34.3 I am using an OVA from the following location https://www.turnkeylinux.org/download?file=turnkey-wordpress-14.1-jessie-amd64.ova Am I missing something ?

Support for Debian guests was added only in the 1.35 development series; see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1362497 for more details on the status of it.> I am using an OVA from the following location > > https://www.turnkeylinux.org/download?file=turnkey-wordpress-14.1-jessie-amd64.ovaI'm checking it to see whether it might work fine or not.
