Currently there are a lot modification between genuine Xen-2.0.1's
Makefile and debiaized version of Makefile.
But I believe we can modify it for both .deb and .rpm nightly build.

I believe we need a debian box to generate debiaized packages nightly.

Yes, agreed definitely.

If official Xen project to offer deb's repo, I am very happy to upload
Xen 2.0.1 debianized packages to the repo and maintain them til Xen-2.0
official debian packages to be released.

thanks & regards,
