It's kind of in flux. The current approach (and probably what we're sticking
with for F19) is to use appliance-creator from the appliance-tools package.
We're going to be moving to something that uses anaconda natively in a VM --
probably Oz, but the fundamentals are the same.

So....

... that's why you're getting that. The kickstart files are still geared for
appliance-tools, and there's a few adjustments that need to be made to make
them work in other anaconda-based tools.

A command line something like 

 sudo appliance-creator -c fedora-19-x86_64-cloud.ks -d -v -o /var/tmp/f19-appliance --name Fedora 19 --release 19 --vmem 2048 --vcpu 2 --format raw

should do it.

Yes, the kind of convergence is definitely a goal.
