There are known issues with the xen and KVM on the same base machine ...
the xen version qemu and the kvm version of qemu clash as does the
libvirt-daemon-kvm and some of the other packages in the main distro.

We know this happens, and we may try to work on it in the future, but
for now KVM and Xen on the same base machine is not supported.

The kernel would do KVM though, just not all the packages will install
if you are installing xen as well.
