Interesting. It is possible that there is a change like this in the
history. I kept track of upstream changes by downloading new tarballs,
extracting them, moving the .bzr directory into the directory where I
extracted the new tarball, and running bzr add `bzr unknowns` followed
by bzr commit. After that I bzr merged the upstream branch into each of
my feature branches. bzr did not complain then.
I am absolutely certain that today I haven't added or removed any files
(nor symlinks, nor directories).

Are there any debs of 0.15 prereleases around?
