Pkg xen devel - Sep 2012 - Bug#688216: xen-utils-4.2: xl does not work

Package: xen-utils-4.2
Version: 4.2.0-1
Severity: normal

Hello,

xl is supposed to be current tool for managing virtual machines on xen
(in absence of any working GUI for that in Debian).

However, xl produces this:

# xl list
ERROR:  A different toolstack (xm) have been selected!

There is no info in README.Debian I could find how to cahnge this
selection.

Reportedly both xl and xm work flawlessly on RedHat.

Running the rc3 hypervisor atm.
