I want to install libvirt-bin under Debian, but it depends on libxenstore3.0 and I don't want it installed because I already have xen installed (built from source) and installing the debian version breaks it. What are my options? I can think of: 1. rebuild the libvirt-bin and remove the dependency (easy enough, but the next upgrade of libvirt-bin will break it) 2. force package installation (not even sure I can do this anymore) 3. create a dummy libxenstore3.0 package with a high enough version that nothing can ever upgrade it 4. install libxenstore3.0 but somehow redirect the files (?) Any other suggestions? Thanks James
