maybe you have noticed, that xen-tools was removed from testing and sid and 
even the bug was also reported, before it was marked fixed with the removal?

With kind regards, Jan.

I didn't notice that and it will not make xen-tools disapear from users
system.

Updating from stable, which does have xen-tools, will run into the file
conflict. So you still need the Replaces even if squeeze does no longer
has xen-tools.

Hi,

as Goswin correctly stated, neither Marco, Jan nor me didn't take into
account that the bug #550590/#566683 ("bash-completion: file conflict
with xen-tools", "trying to overwrite '/etc/bash_completion.d/xm',
which is also in package xen-tools") affects the dist-upgrade from
Lenny to Squeeze even though xen-tools has been removed from unstable
and testing.

IMHO the best way to fix this bug for the dist-upgrade from Lenny to
Squeeze would be if the following headers would be added to
bash-completion:

Conflicts: xen-tools (<= 4.1-1)
Replaces: xen-tools (<= 4.1-1)

I though currently evaluate a reintroduction of xen-tools into
unstable (see http://bugs.debian.org/566714).

Since David Paleino writes in
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=550590#16 that the
bash-completion version of that file is probably more complete, I will
take care that either the file is removed from further releases of
xen-tools or I'll coordinate further actions with the bash-completion
maintainers. (I will also look through the two versions of that file
to see if there's anything which should be merged.)

		Regards, Axel

     - The debootstrap command now also can be configured on the
       commandline with --debootstrap-cmd in xen-create-image and
       xt-install-image (Enhances fix for #436480 which added the
       debootstrap-cmd config file option)
     - Checks for debootstrap and cdebootstrap, uses debootstrap if both
       are installed (Changed "Depends: debootstrap" to "Depends:
       debootstrap | cdebootstrap" in debian/control)
     - Added new files TODO and KNOWN_BUGS to debian/docs.
   * Removal of /etc/bash_completion.d/xm from the package since
     bash-completion ships a more elaborate version of that file. (Closes:
     #566683, #550590, LP: #538917, #484098)
   * Downgrade reiserfsprogs and xfsprogs to Suggests. (Closes: #561618,
     LP: #80233)
   * Added evms-cli to Suggests. It has been removed from Debian before
     Lenny, but it is necessary for some optional functionality of
     xen-tools. And since some Debian derived distributions (e.g. Ubuntu
     LTS and grml) still support it, it's included for the sake of
     completeness and correctness.
   * Added cfengine2 to Suggests. It is helpful to have it installed when
     using the cfengine2 role.
   * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.4 (no changes necessary)
   * Bump Debhelper Compatibility to 7
     - Replace "dh_clean -k" by "dh_prep"
   * Add Vcs-* headers pointing to new upstream and packaging repository
   * Fix some Lintian warnings:
     - [debian/control]: debhelper-but-no-misc-depends
     - [debian/copyright]: copyright-without-copyright-notice
     - [debian/source/format]: missing-debian-source-format
   * Added a README.source explaining how to build xen-tools directly from
     the Git repository.
   * Overhauled package description
