[Pkg-xen-devel] [PATCH 01/13] xen version/upgrade handling: Improve an error message

[Hans van Kranenburg]

From: Ian Jackson <ian.jackson at citrix.com>

When xen-dir cannot find xen-utils, mention that this might be because
xen-utils-<RUNNING-XEN-VERSION> was already removed.

This is generally helpful, but it does not solve the `missing
xenconsoled' problems because 1. it only changes messages and
2. actually in the init script, the error message is currently
discarded anyway (!)

But, anyway, it is an improvemennt.
