Bug Description

libxen-dev does not contain the libxl (i.e. xenlight) libraries or includes. xenlight is now the preferred API to manipulate xen resources (rather than via xend), so this is an issue.

dpkg -c libxen-dev_4.1.1-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb | fgrep libxl.h
gives no results

Likewise, it does not include xentoollog.h from tools/libxc... which is kind of a problem, since /usr/include/xenctrl.h
includes it! Thus one gets errors like
/usr/include/xenctrl.h:52:24: fatal error: xentoollog.h: No such file or directory
when building any program that uses xenctrl.h.

Users running into that error may be able to work around it a little by creating /usr/include/xentoollog.h with contents

struct xentoollog_logger;
typedef struct xentoollog_logger xentoollog_logger;
