That's what I found out by reading the logs more
slowly, on a real computer (eg: not only reading
quickly on my phone...).

I have fixed the issue and tested with piuparts
on my build box and it passed the tests, then I
have uploaded the fixed xen-api 1.3-16.

Last thing, I'm surprised that the xen hypervisor
doesn't depends on xen-utils-common, and apparently,
it also fooled Mike and Jon at Citrix! :)
Bastian, what's the reason for this? Is there
situations where we need the hypervisor to be
installed but don't want xenstored to run?

Cheers,

Thomas
