This means that xorriso did not recognize any boot equipment in
groovy-desktop-amd64.iso .

This looks like the input ISO is not accessible by path
groovy-desktop-amd64.iso, or is an empty file, or a file which begins by
64 KiB of zeros, or a file which has a specially devalued PVD in block 16.
Such files count as "blank medium in the drive".
(xorriso is a CD/DVD/BD burn program with the second job of making images.)

I just tested with xorriso-1.5.2 (newest release, i normally use the
development version) and got test.iso with GPT. So i expect that it will
work for you if you give it the ISO file.
The first "Media summary:" line of the run is for -outdev and should say

  Media summary: 1 session, 1431617 data blocks, 2796m data, ... free

The second line is for the -indev and should really say

  Media summary: 0 sessions, 0 data blocks, 0 data, ... free

because test.iso must not exist before this run.

Have a nice day :)
