Debug output from virt-v2v-inspector run none

Description Jeremy Linton 2023-07-13 00:20:38 UTC 
For example when running virt-v2v-inspector it says:

"virt-v2v-inspector: error: no bootloader detected" on a valid libvirt/kvm bootable guest using systemd-boot.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot/install a fedora image utilizing systemd-boot on the ESP
2. Run virt-v2v-inspector  -i disk $DISKIMAGE
3. Wait for successful completion.
Actual Results:  
[root@mammon-tx2 jlinton]# virt-v2v-inspector  -i disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora-rawhide-systemd-boot.qcow2 
[   0.0] Setting up the source: -i disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora-rawhide-systemd-boot.qcow2
[   1.1] Opening the source

Comment 2 Jeremy Linton 2023-07-13 00:28:53 UTC 
Although, even with a grub based rawhide on aarch64 it still displays warnings that might need attention:

[root@mammon-tx2 jlinton]# virt-v2v-inspector -i disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora-rawhide-2.qcow2 
[   0.0] Setting up the source: -i disk /var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora-rawhide-2.qcow2
[   1.1] Opening the source
[  11.1] Inspecting the source
[  17.4] Checking for sufficient free disk space in the guest
[  17.4] Converting Fedora Linux 39 (Server Edition Prerelease) to run on KVM
virt-v2v-inspector: The QEMU Guest Agent will be installed for this guest 
at first boot.
virt-v2v-inspector: Can't fix UEFI bootloader. VM may not boot.
Comment 3 Fedora Release Engineering 2023-08-16 08:12:45 UTC 
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora Linux 39 development cycle.
Changing version to 39.
