Result of executing virt-v2v with parameter LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1

Description of problem:


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.9.1 on rhel 6.5 x86_64


How reproducible: 100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. prepare a VMWare virtual machine export in ova format
2. launch conversion with the following command virt-v2v  -i ova ./file.ova -os default -oc qemu:///system -of raw ( changing -of parameter doesn't affect the result: ie between  raw, qcow2 nor changing this parameter in virt-v2v.conf )

3.

Actual results: Error: failed to initialize KVM: Operation not permitted ...qemu-kvm: -drive file=/tmp/file-disk1.vmdk,cache=none,format=vmdk,id=hd0,if=ide: 'vmdk' can be only used as read-only device


Expected results: Converted Virtual machine
