There is 2 problems in 2.1.0-1 installer:
1) Bazaar Explorer plugin packaged there missed some files and therefore
has some visual problems in the run-time. (as workaround you can install
Bazaar Explorer from its own installer on top of packaged one).
2) New merge_news plugin is not packaged at all. This plugin is mostly
required for bzr developers itself, and can be used as example of custom
per-file merge algorithm. (I don't think its absence is critical problem).
Both these problems were solved in 2.1.0-2 installer. But now there is
introduced new one:
3) bzr-svn plugin is broken due absence of pysqlite library in the
installer.
So it makes sense to either wait 2.1.1, or (in my opinion of course) to
install 2.1.0-1 and then install Bazaar Explorer separately (if needed).
