Glad that it works for you and it is best for you to contact the repo
maintainer you are using if you hit any problems in future as each
package for xen and kernel can be very different.  i.e. some backport
certain drivers into their own dom0 kernel in order to support newer
hardware or onboard devices such as network drivers or some patch
their xen package to include certain features.

Thanks.

Kindest regards,
