libvirt-{python,client}-0.10.2-54.el6_7.2.x86_64 are the centos core packages,
while the libvirt-client-1.2.15-3.el6.x86_64 is the Virt SIG provided one,
which has Xen support enabled.

So I need the 1.2.15-3 versions, but it seems libvirt-python is not included in the Virt SIG built ones..

So that's an issue/problem..
