0.600.1 is very old, and virt-convert has changed a lot since then. I'd recommend trying the latest version from virt-manager-1.1.0, and if you still hit issues, file an upstream bug:
I did just that, i.e. I used virt-convert 0.600.4 from virt-manager-1.1.0 (while I left the installed libvirt packages at 1.2.9) and the same issue happens again.
I'm puzzled. Does this mean no one uses virt-convert to convert from OVA to virt-image?
New virt-convert does not convert to virt-image, since virt-image has been removed. It converts straight to libvirt XML If you are still hitting an issue, please file a bug report with the full virt-convert command line, output of the failing command with --debug, and the ovf config file (or an example where you downloaded the appliance) - Cole
I know it's not the problem in the virtual appliance because I can extract its disk image and convert it to qcow2 with:
qemu-img convert -f vmdk -O qcow2 appliance.vmdk appliance.qcow2
and then create a virtual machine by providing the converted disk and things work normally. But I'd like to avoid this workaround if possible.
