No final name for trans_id 'new-1' while trying to merge,,, Help

[Frits Jalvingh]

Hello List,

I got this error while trying to merge a branch. It contains quite an 
important piece of code and should be mergable again later, so I really, 
really would like a workaround for this problem...

Can anyone tell me what this error means? Is there a workaround I can use?

I got the error on a different repository once before and reported it as a bug 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/364305), but have not gotten any 
response. Since the earlier bug was caused by a cherrypick I can imagine that 
but the current failure is not a cherrypick...

The full message is as follows:
