Incidentally, I notice that <URL:https://dev.launchpad.net/Getting>
still lists Bazaar 1.16.1 as a minimum version, although I recall people
here saying that was untrue and should be changed to something like 1.18
for similar reasons. It's likely many people are (without us noticing)
giving up on Bazaar, or Launchpad source, or both, because the declared
minimum doesn't work smoothly.
