[meta-virtualization] [PATCH 2/2] xen: Add RDEPENDS block for xendomains script.

[Philip Tricca]

Your guess is as good as mine. I've not had to dive into xl code. I'm
just going on observed behavior right now. I spent a bunch of time just
tracking down the 'dependency' as it seems to be quite unrelated.

The hang only seems to be triggered when invoking 'xl create' in a
subshell from the xendomains script. Just breaking this call out of the
subshell gets everything back on track. I'm satisfied to write this off
as a mystery for the time being. It moves the recipe forward with some
better granularity in the runtime dependencies which was my main goal.

Incremental progress is good right? :P
