Yes, I've already had some brief discussions with Thomas and Stefan
about the packages.   We're getting quite close to having working
xenserver-core packages for Debian (in addition to the current versions
for CentOS).   I don't think you will want to use those packages directly 
in Debian, but as a result of trying to build our own Debian packages
 we have been removing as many of these distribution-specific quirks in 
the upstream packages as possible which should make packaging easier
in future.

Thanks,
Euan
