Description Geoff Kuenning 2023-10-09 19:55:37 UTC
virt-v2v cannot convert virtual machines that have OpenSuSE Leap 15 installed, due to their use of zstd compression on modules (.ko.zst).  See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2116811 (bug report), https://github.com/libguestfs/virt-v2v/commit/315c016dbea899587649a4bbf1865390cb4e1d3c (fix commit), and https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/0e784824e82a88e522873fec5db1a11943d637ed (related commit).

Patch taken for virt-v2v and submitted for Leap 15.4 / 15.5.
It will take a little time for it to works its way through QA and be released.

The related commit is already part of libguestfs on these two distros.

Thanks!
