I'm using a tarball from
http://bits.xensource.com/oss-xen/release/4.1.0/xen-4.1.0.tar.gz
It seems Thomas used the tools/ioemu-qemu-xen subdirectory as source for
xen-qemu-dm. At a first glance I didn't notice
debian/mypatches/add-rules.patch: it adds Rules.mk from the tools
directory, which get lots of changes from 4.0 to 4.1, so that's probably
what causes the error.
Thomas, did you try with a newer version of Rules.mk?

Niccol?

That's ok, the tools/ioemu-qemu-xen directory of that archive
corresponds to the correct tag in
git://xenbits.xen.org/qemu-xen-4.0-testing.git

That could well be it.

I guess you didn't mean to only mail me?

Ian.

You need to use the tools/ioemu-qemu-xen from xen-4.1.0.tar.gz too, just
changing the Rules.mk isn't going to be sufficient.

As per the debian/copyright, I cloned the git.

That was made by Bastian on his attempt to package xen-qemu-dm
separately. I will get the latest version from Xen 4.1, as you suggest.
I will also get things like ROMs and others from the tool directory, as
they are not the same as the "standard" qemu (I've been told that
on the
xen-devel). In Squeeze, it currently works with ROMs from Qemu, but
that's luck...

Also, I'll have to use better dependencies, as PXE roms and keyboard
has, since Squeeze release, been separated in smaller package, and are
no longer embedded in Qemu.

All together, that's quite some work ahead... :)
