1)
Could you read it through and fix some typos where command line exmaples
are somehow at the same line, like this:

  "Creating Package"

  $ echo "[BUILDDEB]" > ~/.bazaar/builddeb.conf $ $EDITOR ~/.bazaar/builddeb.conf

I don't have Ubuntu Wiki Login to do it myself.

2) The debian page http://wiki.debian.org/BzrBuildpackage seems to
refer to non-existing package python-deb822

  http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=python-de822

Could ou also take a look at it. It refers to bzr 0.11 etc.

Otherwise I would be interested the bzr-buildpackage, but haven't get
a chance to install (I tried once long time ago, but failed to get it up)
