Sorry, yes that was unclear. Your rereading was what I trying to say.
And also the fact that this message doesn't actually work, so we have
bugs against other projects like the one linked where the guy never
did manage to get the source, and just gave up. That's why I think
this is a Bazaar problem, as even though there are downstream
solutions like "don't check in symlinks" or "use cygwin" they don't
actually result in happy users.
