I got the "IE10 on Win 8" VM download from here:
  https://dev.modern.ie/tools/vms/linux/

and am trying to convert the .ova file to a format that
will work with virt-manager and KVM on Fedora 21.

I tried this:

$ virt-v2v -v -x -i ova -o libvirt IE10\ -\ Win8.ova

and got this output:

virt-v2v: libguestfs 1.28.12 (x86_64)
[   0.0] Opening the source -i ova IE10 - Win8.ova
tar -xf 'IE10 - Win8.ova' -C '/var/tmp/ova.Jecd3x'
virt-v2v: error: could not parse ovf:Name from OVF document

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]

Anything else I need to be doing in order to
convert this OVA?
