I'd like to explain it in more detail, there is no dependency 
relationship between them actually, and we don't need set any rdepends 
for it.
The root cause is that when xen support is detected by qemu configure, 
"-lxenstore" is added to LDFLAGS, but mostly libxenstore.so itself on 
host is also compiled as a shared library, so it is linked to liblzma.so 
of host path, which will lead a version mismatch with lzma in sysroot.
