The RPM dependancies will automatically ensure that you get the correct
set of RPMs installed. For RHEL-5 you can use  up2date or yum to install
them, for example:

    yum install  python-virtinst

Will ensure that 'virt-install' and all of its dependancies are installed
correctly.

After installing be sure to either reboot the host, or manually start
the Xen daemon, with 'service xend start'

Dan.
