Or the other way around, I'ld be glad to be your "padawan" on this ;)

I attached the output of the selftest run (bzr.dev_selftest_out.log).
The result of the full run was:
<output>
Ran 13742 tests in 7753.731s

FAILED (failures=14, errors=13, known_failure_count=17)
797 tests skipped
Missing feature 'Internally performed glob expansion' skipped 5 tests.
Missing feature '_winreg' skipped 2 tests.
Missing feature 'attrib Windows command-line tool' skipped 1 tests.
Missing feature 'bzrlib._walkdirs_win32' skipped 9 tests.
Missing feature 'strace' skipped 3 tests.
</output>

I already fixed one kind of error related to this "special" /tmp:
"[Errno 1] Operation not permitted: ", caused by os.chmod.

Now I'm getting 17 failures and 4 errors.

I also attached the output of this run (bzr.dev_fixes_selftest_out.log)
and the list of failing test so it can be used with --load-list
(osx_failing_tests.txt)

Also, I found that:
    blackbox.test_mv.TestMove.test_mv_change_case_dir
    blackbox.test_mv.TestMove.test_mv_change_case_dir_w_files
    blackbox.test_mv.TestMove.test_mv_change_case_file

are failing because I'm using a case-insensitive HFS+

Most of the other test failures are caused by encoding related issues.

More news soon

Cheers,
