Do you mean Xenserver as in www.xenserver.org or as in "a generic Xen
server"? If the former then building xentrace from RELEASE-4.5.0 may or
may not work, since you would need a version matching the xenserver
hypervisor version.

For xenserver support you should use the resources over at
www.xenserver.org (lists and forums etc).

This usually means you need to (re)run ldconfig, but see above if you
are using xenserver.

If you are not using xenserver but have installed RELEASE-4.5.0 then you
should have run ldconfig as part of getting the basic system working,
and I'm not sure why rerunning again after only rebuilding xentrace
would be needed.
