Note that this package was already improved in previous releases (in collaboration with upstream) to make it a better suited target for Ubuntu main: better bzr support, use bzr by default, set up repository at install time, etc.

Bug 376388 is a bit of a bummer, since it breaks "normal" bzr usage. It would be really nice if that could be fixed for lucid, before a lot more people start using this.

Otherwise this looks okay, approved.
