First of all, I don't think it can be stressed too often that turning on backports without using pinning is generally a very bad idea. For maximum stability you want to only pull in specific packages from backports.
That said I think a solution to this problem would be that (roughly): * xen-utils 3.3.0 should depend on libxen3 >= 3.3.0 and should conflict with libxen < 3.3.0 * xen-utils 3.2.0 should depend on libxen3 >= 3.2.0 and should conflict with libxen >= 3.3.0 I'd say these are SRU worthy fixes and once backported would prevent this issue as well as a few others. ** Also affects: xen-3.2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags added: server virtualization xen -- libxen3 in hardy-backports breaks Xen 3.2 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/297077 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
