Branching a Git repository

Until I install Dulwich then:

        |> bzr co git://github.com/gradle/gradle.git Master
        bzr: ERROR: exceptions.ImportError: bzr-git: Please install dulwich, https://launchpad.net/dulwich
        
        *** Bazaar has encountered an internal error.  This probably indicates a
            bug in Bazaar.  You can help us fix it by filing a bug report at
                https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+filebug
            attaching the crash file
                /home/users/russel/.cache/crash/bzr-20090910070024-23760.crash
            and including a description of the problem.
        
            The crash file is plain text and you can inspect or edit it to remove
            private information.
        
Is almost sensible.  I get the information that bzr-git is missing a
component which is fine.  However getting the whole "Bazaar internal
error" message seems to me to be just plain wrong.  This isn't a Bazaar
internal error, it is a "the user hasn't properly configured the system"
error, and should be treated as such.  Should I raise a bug for this
somewhere?

Of course there are actually two forms of URL for Git clones, so I tried
the other one:

          |> bzr co git at github.com:gradle/gradle.git Master
        bzr: ERROR: Not a branch: "/home/users/russel/Repositories/Bazaar/SharedRepositories/Gradle/git at github.com:gradle/gradle.git/".

I consider this to be a Bazaar internal error, well bzr-git anyway, so
the question is what is the right way of dealing with bug reports for
bzr-git.

Thanks.
