💖 p2v-release-notes — the virt-p2v Release Notes, bestie edition 💖

okay so this is the manual page for p2v-release-notes, aka literally just the release notes for virt-p2v 🦋. It's a (1) — a section 1 manual page — living under Virtualization Support, and it's giving "changelog but make it a manpage" energy. No cap.

✨ RELEASE NOTES FOR VIRT-P2V 1.42.0 ✨

So these release notes only cover the differences from the previous version. That's it. That's the whole scope. If you want the detailed changelogs, bestie, you gotta go look at the git repository — they're not here. 🙈

  • The "rhv-upload" output mode of virt-v2v is not listed as an output driver, because virt-p2v does not provide all the GUI elements to properly use it (Pino Toscano). it's giving "not invited to the party" 💅
  • Virt-v2v is checked as a requirement for the functional tests, in addition to guestfish and virt-customize (Pino Toscano). three-way vibe check, and everyone passed 🎀
  • virt-p2v-make-disk now sets "p2v.local" as the hostname in the generated disk image (Pino Toscano). cute hostname, iconic choice ⭐
  • Documented "p2v" as the initial password for the root user on the disk image generated by virt-p2v-make-disk, virt-p2v-make-kickstart, and virt-p2v-make-kiwi (Pino Toscano). write it down bestie, it's the whole point 📝

🌸 RELEASE NOTES FOR VIRT-P2V 1.41.0 🌸

This is the first standalone release of virt-p2v — it got split from the libguestfs sources, like a glow-up where it finally got its own apartment 🏠✨

There are no functionality changes compared to virt-p2v shipped as part of libguestfs 1.40. Same program, new address. no notes. 👑

🌈 RELEASE NOTES FOR HISTORICAL VERSIONS OF VIRT-P2V 🌈

Before 1.41.0, virt-p2v was released as part of libguestfs. So basically, release notes for these older versions are found as part of the release notes of libguestfs. go check guestfs-release-notes for the lore 📜

When reporting a bug, please supply — and this part matters, don't skip it bestie:

  • The version of virt-p2v.
  • Where you got virt-p2v (eg. which Linux distro, compiled from source, etc)
  • Describe the bug accurately and give a way to reproduce it.
a bug report with no repro steps is giving "trust me bro" and nobody can work with that 😭 give them the receipts.

and that's the page, bestie 💖 this one's from virt-p2v-1.42.4 and it's dated 2026-04-08 — go forth, p2v responsibly, and don't forget that root password is p2v ✨👑🌈
