The ZXing project provides some code for calling XZing via an Intent on their Wiki:
http://code.google.com/p/zxing/source/browse/trunk/android-integration/src/com/google/zxing/integration/android/IntentIntegrator.java
If you're using that code, you don't need to add anything to your manifest file. From your activity you can just call
IntentIntegrator.initiateScan(this);
That will take care of verifying that ZXing is installed, and prompt the user to install it via the Marketplace if it isn't.
