Error: Missing Dependency: xen-hypervisor-abi = 3.1 is needed by package xen-3.0.3-105.el5_5.5.i386 (rhel-i386-server-vt-5)
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
                       package-cleanup --dupes
                       rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest
The program package-cleanup is found in the yum-utils package.

yum clean all
コマンドを実行後、再度 yum install xen kernel-xen
のコマンドを実行してもエラーとなりました。

なお、再インストール後、同じ操作でインストールができました。
上記メッセージの出力理由を教えてください。

この度は、本サポートをご利用頂き誠にありがとうございます。
いただきましたご質問に対して以下の通り回答させて頂きます。

本事象は、yum clean all によるキャッシュのクリアでは回避できない、DB の問題
もしくはチャンネルに問題があったと思われます。万が一再度発生した場合は、
yum-utils をインストールした上で下記をお試しください。

package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
