Known issues

gotchaPython version support: COT requires Python >=2.7, <4, but drops Python 3.3 as of v2.2.0. Ensure you are using Python 3.4+.

fix

Use Python 3.4 or later.

affects: >=2.2.0

gotchaQEMU version compatibility: For creating streamOptimized VMDK files, QEMU >= 2.5.1 is required. Versions 2.1.0-2.5.0 produce incompatible VMDKs.

fix

Install QEMU 2.5.1+ or use vmdktool as fallback.

affects: all
