I wonder if my set up is too specialized to worry over too much -- I was
using the same account for both client and server and this led to some
confusion about what was being written to the .bzr.log file because of
the NFS mount.  In a less coupled situation the error message and
reading the .bzr.log file may well be enough.

I think therefore that apart from knowing which message comes from the
server and which from the client, there may be enough feedback.

I think what worried me more is why python-gobject was already loaded on
my workstations but not on the server.  This is not a Bazaar problem per
se, unless it is to do with package dependencies.
