Hello; thanks for the ping!

Yes, I'm still assigned and have a few tasks to check/complete on that bug.

Elias, could you please test whether xen in my `build` PPA [1] helps
with your use case?
(I've uploaded a test build there ~2 weeks ago, but I have had to
prioritize other work since. I'll try and bump this. :-)

cheers,
Mauricio
