Now that the hotplug scripts have been fixed to remove hardcoded paths lets try this again. From 26470:acaf29203cf9: This is the defacto (or FHS mandated?) standard location for software built from source, in order to avoid clashing with packaged software which is installed under /usr/bin etc. I think there is benefit in having Xen's install behave more like the majority of other OSS software out there. The major downside here is in the transition from 4.2 to 4.3 where people who have built from source will innevitably discover breakage because 4.3 no longer overwrites stuff in /usr like it used to so they pickup old stale bits from /usr instead of new stuff from /usr/local. Packages will use ./configure --prefix=/usr or whatever helper macro their package manager gives them. I have confirmed that doing this results in the same list of installed files as before this patch was applied. The hypervisor remains in /boot/ and there is no intention to move it.

xen-bugtool =========== The xen-bugtool command line application will collate the Xen dmesg output, details of the hardware configuration of your machine, information about the build of Xen that you are using, plus, if you allow it, various logs. The information collated can either be posted to a Xen Bugzilla bug (this bug must already exist in the system, and you must be a registered user there), or it can be saved as a .tar.bz2 for sending or archiving. The collated logs may contain private information, and if you are at all worried about that, you should not use this tool, or you should explicitly exclude those logs from the archive. xen-bugtool is wholly interactive, so simply run it, and answer the questions.
