Is this a bug in Dulwich, bzr-git or bzr? (or my set up. . . )

No it doesn't.

        Traceback (most recent call last):

Which explians the original error message I was seeing I guess ;-)

So let me ask the dual question:  if Dulwich is not installed correctly
(even though I just used the standard "make install" from the Dulwich
source), how come bzr-git is able to work with Git repositories giving
the appearance that everything was working as it should?

Thanks.
