I can see the spinner when running locally.

After hacking Makefile.am so it builds the VM with fedora-36 (I'm
actually using Fedora 37 and there is no virt-builder template), I was
able to do 'make run-virt-p2v-in-a-vm', and I _did_ see the spinner
there too.

No idea why it works for me and not for you.

On my laptop: gtk3-3.24.34-2.fc37.x86_64

Inside the p2v VM: gtk3-3.24.34-1.fc36.x86_64
