Importing VMs from Aqemu (and perhaps Virtualbox)

Hello, I just discovered gnome-boxes and am quite impressed so far. However, I was wondering if I could get a
bit of help importing my existing VMs from Aqemu and perhaps Virtualbox. The Aqemu images are still in
home/.aqemu but libvirt does not see them when I type qemu://localhost into the URL field.
I am unable to start Aqemu since upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04. It is a known bug. I am also unable/unwilling to
install Virtualbox, but I have backups of my images on an external drive if Boxes can use them.
I am able to wrestle my pre-existing VMs on to Boxes one at a time by creating a new VM, C/P my existing
image over from home/.aqemu to home/.local/share/gnome-boxes/images, and then renaming the image file.
This gets tedious as I have a number of VMs, and I would appreciate any hints on what I might be doing wrong
with my attempts at a mass import.
TIA
