Thanks for finding out anyway. I have split up the package to provide
different binaries and have uploaded to experimental. It'll have to
pass NEW and ftpmaster scrutiny, so don't expect it to show up any
time soon.

I'd appreciate if people with xen hosts could check the new aide-xen
and/or aide-dynamic packages.
