Maybe: "xen: fix pygrub runtime by adding xen-python to xen-pygrub
RDEPENDS"  as the shortlog ?

Can we expand on this message a bit ?

I assume that something from xen.lowlevel.xc is pulling in pygrub, and
that in turn requires xen-python? What is the actual on-target or boot
issue this then triggers ?

I'm not currently able to do Xen runtime tests (and hence can't see
this for myself), so I'm trying to understand the issue just from the
commit message (and failing at the moment).

Cheers,

Bruce
