Okay, I managed to convert the image file, rather than upload the new image file I'll post instructions on how to do it.
1) attached to this post should be a zip file contianing the OVF file, replace the one in the directory with the existing ovf and vdmk file with the ovf in the zip file
2) run the ovftool as follows:
ovftool --skipManifestGeneration Calibre-devel-F10-XFCE.ovf Calibre-devel-F10-XFCE.vmx
3) that should be it.
This needs to be run under linux or Windows (I ran under linux) you can then copy across to the Mac. When you open the VM in Fusion it will ask if you want to update it, you can safely say yes to this.
