    The error message is:
    
      installed kernel packages in this guest:
      virt-v2v: error: no installed kernel packages were found.
    
    This is because no kernel packages are found in the guest, and indeed
    I can see in the log:
    
      libguestfs: trace: v2v: inspect_list_applications2 "/dev/vg0/lv-root"
      libguestfs: trace: v2v: inspect_list_applications2 = <struct guestfs_application2_list(0)>
    
    Since it's a own build, most probably libdb-utils was not installed
    when configure was run, and thus libguestfs did not download and
    inspect the content of the RPM DB in the guest.
    
    See also http://libguestfs.org/guestfs-building.1.html for the list of
    mandatory, and optional build & runtime dependencies.
