Subject: [PATCH] v2v: update documentation on nbdkit (RHBZ#1605242)
nbdkit >= 1.6 ships a VDDK plugin always built, so recommend that
version instead of recommending to build nbdkit from sources.
(cherry picked from commit 0704d8eb0bcc8139886eb4291f75a3ca49a91e58)

-You do B<not> need to run C<make install> because you can run nbdkit
-from its source directory. The source directory has a shell script
-called F<nbdkit> which runs the locally built copy of nbdkit and its

-(that is, the directory containing the shell script called F<nbdkit>),

-
- export PATH=/path/to/nbdkit-1.1.x:$PATH
+nbdkit E<ge> 1.6 is recommended, as it ships with the VDDK plugin
