    $ type -a python
    python is /usr/bin/python

    $ file /usr/bin/python
    /usr/bin/python: PE32 executable for MS Windows (console) Intel 80386 32-bit

    $ /usr/bin/python -V
    Python 2.5.2

    $ python -c "import  bzrlib._status_tuple_c"
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
    ImportError: No module named _status_tuple_c

Hm, the package contain "bzrlib/static_tuple.py", not "status"?

    $ python -c "import  bzrlib._static_tuple_c"
    <succeeds, no display>

    $ bzr --version
    Bazaar (bzr) 2.1.0
      Python interpreter: /usr/bin/python 2.5.2
      Python standard library: /usr/lib/python2.5
      Platform: CYGWIN_NT-5.1-1.7.1-0.218-5-3-i686-32bit
      bzrlib: /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/bzrlib
      Bazaar configuration: /home/jaalto/.bazaar
      Bazaar log file: /home/jaalto/.bzr.log

Strange. I updated latest packages from Cygwin.com, and the problem
vanished. Perhaps it was something with the python installation.

Thanks,
Jari
