virt-p2v Release Notes

## NAME

p2v-release-notes - virt-p2v Release Notes

## RELEASE NOTES FOR VIRT-P2V 1.42.0

These release notes only cover the differences from the previous version.  For detailed changelogs, please see the git repository.

- •

  The `"rhv-upload"` output mode of virt-v2v is not listed as output driver, as virt-p2v does not provide all the GUI elements to properly use it (Pino Toscano).

- •

  Virt-v2v is checked as requirement for the functional tests, in addition to guestfish, and virt-customize (Pino Toscano).

- •

  Virt-p2v-make-disk now sets `"p2v.local"` as hostname in the generated disk image (Pino Toscano).

- •

  Document `"p2v"` as 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).

## RELEASE NOTES FOR VIRT-P2V 1.41.0

This is the first standalone release of virt-p2v, split from the libguestfs sources.
