I was thinking

 our %arch_debian2xen = qw(i386 x86_32
                           amd64 x86_64
                           armhf armhf);
 our %arch_xen2debian;
 $arch_xen2debian{$arch_debian2xen{$_}} = $_ foreach keys %arch_debian2xen;

or some such.

Then

   my $xenarch = $arch_debian2xen{$arch};
   my $pvgrub = "/usr/local/lib/xen/boot/pv-grub-$xenarch.gz";

Or is that conceptually wrong ?

Ian.
