[Pkg-xen-devel] Bug#852545: Config file in xen-hypervisor package likely causes problems on upgrade

Package: xen
Version: 4.8.0-1
Severity: important

Starting with 4.8 the xen-hypervisor-4.8* package will contain a grub config
file in /etc/default/grub.d/xen.cfg. This will be causing problem when moving to
Xen 4.9 because then xen-hypervisor-4.9* will try to install the same file again.
This will prevent two versions of the hypervisor to be co-installable. Maybe the
solution would be to have a xen-hypervisor-common package that solely contains
the config.
