But wasn't the request about splitting off the library part from a bigger package that contains all about xen?

That appears to be the case. I know that there have been attempts to build qemu and libvirt with xen support in the past, and the xen packages themselves include a lot of things that aren't needed to do that job. So I can see the purpose, but I generally prefer the lack of -libs and -dev packages. -Sam
