Splendid.

At the risk of appearing like a grumpy old man,  I have the
sources.list:

        deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy main restricted
        universe multiverse
        deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy main
        restricted universe multiverse
        
        deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-updates main
        restricted universe multiverse
        deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-updates main
        restricted universe multiverse
        
        deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-security main
        restricted universe multiverse
        deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-security main
        restricted universe multiverse
        
        deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/bzr/ubuntu gutsy main
        deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/bzr/ubuntu gutsy main
        
        deb http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-backports main
        restricted universe multiverse
        deb-src http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu gutsy-backports main
        restricted universe multiverse

but this is not enough to be able to install a consistent post 1.0
version of Bazaar with bzr, bzr-gtk, bzr-svn and bzrtools included.  I
suggest it is critical to the success of Bazaar that people can quickly
and easily install the latest release version of this set of packages.
Currently this is not the case :-(
