libxen-4.1: Public libs for Xen

 This package contains the shared libraries for Xen.

libxen-dev: Public headers and libs for Xen

 This package contains the public headers and static libraries for Xen.

libxen-ocaml: OCaml libraries for controlling Xen

 This package contains the runtime libraries required for the ocaml
 bindings to the Xen control libraries.

libxen-ocaml-dev: OCaml libraries for controlling Xen (devel package)

 This package contains the ocaml findlib packages for compiling

xen-hypervisor-4.1-amd64: Xen Hypervisor on AMD64

 The hypervisor is the "core" for XEN itself. It gets booted by the boot
 loader and controls cpu and memory, sharing them between your
 administrative domain (Domain 0) and the virtual guest systems.
 .
 In order to boot a XEN system along with this package you also need a
 kernel specifically crafted to work as the Domain 0, mediating hardware
 access for XEN itself.

xen-hypervisor-4.1-i386: Xen Hypervisor on i386

 The hypervisor is the "core" for XEN itself. It gets booted by the boot
 loader and controls cpu and memory, sharing them between your
 administrative domain (Domain 0) and the virtual guest systems.
 .
 In order to boot a XEN system along with this package you also need a
 kernel specifically crafted to work as the Domain 0, mediating hardware
 access for XEN itself.

xen-utils-4.1: XEN administrative tools

 The userspace tools to manage a system virtualized through the XEN virtual
 machine monitor.
