I'm part of the debian Openstack packaging team, and I worked with Mike
on packaging XCP in Debian (project Kronos). I do not wish to try
devstack, I wish to fix the Debian packaging!

I'm not using CentOS, but Debian (project Kronos). And in there, you
just need to do:

apt-get install nova-xcp-plugins nova-xcp-network

which installs the above in the correct folders (which are *NOT*
the same as for CentOS). I'd love to have a bit of help from Citrix to
test all this by the way.
