Looking  at  http://strugglers.net/~andy/blog/2008/01/20/red-hat-based-linux-under-xen-from-debian-etch/
I found following  statement.

    Hi,

    The broken pygrub is not a security bug so not going to be fixed at least until the next stable release I suppose.

    Do you have the details of the pygrub exploit? I thought I saw it fixed, which is what I would  expect as a security issue.

    If youʼre just here to bash Debian then Iʼm not really interested however.

My concern is failure to manage with "xm"  CentOS 5.1 DomU at Xen 3.2.1 F8 Dom0 after successful DomU creating by virt-install obtained as a result of "yum install python_libvirt" on xen-disabled F8 instance (64-bit)
