Hi

vzctl and vzquota is in Debian wheezy (normal debian, not this repository).
The versions in Debian wheezy (stable) should work just fine, no need to
upgrade them unless you need ploop support, or have faced some bug that
happend to be solved in a later version.

The latest versions of those tools are in wheezy-test. They are still being
tested out to be sure they work fine.

Add
deb http://download.openvz.org/debian wheezy-test main
if you want to try out the latest versions of vzctl and vzquota.

vzctl-core is part of vzctl in Debian. Kir have to answer about the
vzkernel-firmware. I guess it is part of the normal linux-image, but I may
be wrong here.

There is no strong reason why we keep multiple versions of the kernel. You
have the freedom to select an older version. We will clean up old versions
later on. This is more because of how the apt archive manager used works,
than something else.

// Ola
