Hmm, I didn't realize this was intentionally not used. For me it simply means I
can't run Xen tools directly out of the build area (since install.sh does
nothing
but copying things around, there's little point in using it for other than an
install into the default (root=/) location. But obviously, when run directly out
of the build area, the install checks will never get done and I'm ending up
with a cryptic error message again.
As I can't think of a smarter way, I think taking this change will depend on
whether it's acceptable to the majority to require all install prerequisites to
be present on build-only machines, and whether it is a reasonable
expectation that at some future point it'll be possible to run multiple Xen
versions on the same machine (and, as per above comment, directly out of
the build area).
