Thanks for the explanation.

I think this should be mentioned on the
http://bazaar-vcs.org/DistroDownloads page at least for a time being.
Currently, this page is misleading, since one may discover that there
are no actual packages of 1.5.0 only after closer inspection of the
packages available for download or after enabling ppa-repository and
getting clash of newer version of bzrtools with bzr (1.3.x) available
in official repositories.
